TO: Economic Development Authority
FROM: Paul Snook, Economic Development Coordinator Is
SUBJECT: Small Cities Development Program (SCDP) - update
MEETING DATE: October 2, 2001
Enclosed is the September 2001 update on the Small Cities Development Program (SCDP) from the
Carver County HRA.
In summary, the HRA reports the following SCDP funding activity:
Amount % of Funds
Amount Committed/ Committed/
Funded Allocated Allocated
Single Family
Residential
(goal: 30 units) $369,000 $182,330 49%
Rental
Residential
(goal. 30 units) $121,500 $82,500 68%
Commercial $251,250 $11,215 4.5%
(goal: 15 units)
TOTAL $741,750 $276,045 37%
Note: The numbers in parentheses next to the property types listed above indicate the "rehabbed property
unit goals" by property type for Shakopee's SCDP program, set by the Minnesota Department of Trade
and Economic Development.
Small Cities Shakopee Rehab
Program
Calls have been trickling in regarding interest in the program. However, most of the inquires
have been from persons out of the target area. Once the new, map which includes the new target
area, has been completed by city staff, the HRA will be mailing these new brochures in every
property owner in the new (as well as the current) target area.
Leona Humphrey, a representative with the Department of Trade and Economic Development
(the funders for this program) was out to monitor the program this summer. The HRA will be
coordinating with city staff to submit follow -up information requested by Ms. Humphrey after
her monitoring visit.
Single - Family Rehabilitation
Project
Recap on the program
To be eligible for the program, the applicant's income must be below 80% of the area median
income. The homeowner will be eligible for a 50 to 100% grant depending upon their income.
The homeowner would need to provide leverage ranging from 0 to 50 %. The HRA has low -
interest loans the homeowner could apply for to use as their leverage requirement. However, if
they are not eligible for a leverage source due to poor credit, too many debts, no equity, etc., the
leverage requirement will be waived and they will receive a 100% Small Cities grant.
The grant is a 0% interest, 10 -year deferred loan. If the homeowner stays in the home for 10
years, they will not have to pay the loan back. The loan is forgiven on a pro -rated basis of 10%
per year. For example, if the homeowner moves out 3 years later they would be responsible for
paying back to the City 70% of what they borrowed.
After their application has been approved, Dave Schaffer, the HRA's Rehab Advisor, will
schedule an appointment to inspect the home to determine what improvements can be done.
Dave will draw up a work write -up for the homeowner to submit to contractors. It is the
responsibility of the homeowner to select the contractor(s).
After reasonable bids have been attained, the homeowner will schedule a time to close on the
loan with the HRA. The HRA will make the payments to the contractor(s) after the work has
been inspected by Dave Schaffer. The HRA will then submit a draw request to the City (to
submit to DIED) for reimbursement.
Single-Family Rehab Summary
13 applicants have closed on their loans and work is under way. 8 of those applicants have had
all of their work completed. Furthermore, one applicant has scheduled their loan closing for next
week. Two additional applicants are in the process of obtaining bids. Furthermore, 3 applicants
are no longer eligible for the program since they did not obtain bids within the specified
timeframe. We have granted these 3 homeowners bid deadline extensions, from the normal
deadline of 60 days to one full year.. Since they were unable to secure bids within that extended
time, the funds committed to those projects are now available to other property owners.
Amount Funded $369,000.00
Amount Committed $163,329.60 (closed on their loans)

Rental Rehabilitation Project
Recap on the program
Any rental owner may apply for the program as long as their property is located in the targeted
Small Cities Boundary. 51% of their rental units need to be leased by tenants at or below 80% of
Metro Area Median Income, and the rents for all of the units would need to be at or below the
Fair Market Rents. If the property is in the targeted area, and both the tenant's income and rent
are within the allowable limits a property owner would be eligible for a deferred loan up to
$10,000 per unit. A maximum loan amount is currently under advisement with city staff. The
owner is required to match these dollars with a 50% match. This is a secured loan, which will be
forgiven after seven years. Compliance of rent restriction and tenant characteristics is in force
for the full seven years. The loan is forgiven on a pro -rated basis of 14.28% per year.
After their application has been approved, Bill Schwanke, the HRA's Rehab Advisor, will
schedule an appointment to inspect the rental property to determine what improvements should
be incorporated into the scope of work. Bill will draw up a work write -up for the homeowner to
submit to contractors. It is the responsibility of the homeowner to select the contractor(s).
After reasonable bids have been attained, the property owner will schedule a time to close on the
loan with the HRA. The HRA will make the necessary payments to the contractor(s), after Bill
Schwanke has inspected the work. The HRA will then submit a draw request to the City (to
submit to DTED) for reimbursement
Rental Rehab Summary
Carver County HRA has had 1 new inquiry regarding the Small Cities Rental Loan Program; 7
rental property owners completed their applications. Three of the original seven applicants have
dropped from the program. The remaining 4 active applicants represent 11 rental units. One of
our rental applicants is in the process of obtaining an additional bid for exterior improvements.
The last rental applicant is waiting for historical clearance.
Amount Funded $121,500.00

Project
Any commercial property owner may apply for the program as long as their property is located
in the targeted Small Cities Boundary. Note: this boundary is the small area located in the core
downtown area of the bigger Small Cities targeted area. Priority is given to owner occupied
structures or where leases are currently in place. Building improvements must be directed
toward correcting defects or deficiencies in the property affecting the aesthetics or the property
safety, energy consumption, structural/mechanical systems, habitability or handicapped
accessibility of the property. Owners are eligible for 50% of the total commercial repair costs,
with a maximum loan up to $25,000. The loan is a deferred loan for seven years; which is pro-
rated in case of sale.
Commercial Rehab Summary
3 applicants have closed on their commercial loans and work in underway or completed.
Another applicant is tying up lose ends with paperwork from their contractor and should be
closing shortly. Furthermore, another applicant is waiting for bids and then will be ready to
close. We have recently received two additional applications that are currently being processed.

CITY OF SHAKOPEE
Memorandum
TO: Economic Development Authority
Economic Development Advisory Committee
FROM: Paul Snook, Economic Development Coordinator
SUBJECT: Small Cities Development Program; Expansion of Commercial
Target Area
MEETING DATE: October 2, 2001
Introduction & Background
The EDA recently asked staff to inquire to the Minnesota Department of Trade &
Economic Development about expanding the commercial target area of the Shakopee
Small Cities Development Program. As you recall, at the August meeting, the EDA
passed a resolution requesting that the Department of Trade & Economic Development
(DTED) allow an extension of the time limit of the Shakopee SCDP grant, and expansion
of the residential target area. The time extension request has been approved, and the
request for expansion of the residential target area is under review by DTED.
Staff contacted Shakopee's representative at DTED, Leona Humphrey, regarding the
request to expand the commercial target area. Ms Humphrey advised that:
• Since the Shakopee SCDP grant end date was recently extended for one year, to
September 30, 2002, the City should wait until sometime into 2002 to make the
request. This will allow further effort to encourage participation of property
owners in the current target area, and will provide sufficient time during the grant
extension period for commercial property owners to access the program.
• Additional marketing be done for the commercial segment of the program (City
and HRA staff are receiving more inquiries as a result of increased marketing).
In addition, some commercial property owners have had the understanding that fagade
improvements on buildings in standard condition do not qualify. Ms. Humphrey
confirmed otherwise, that fagade improvements are an eligible improvement on buildings
in standard condition as long as any code violations (if there are any) are also addressed.
If there are no code violations, fagade restoration is an eligible improvement along with
other improvements such as energy efficiency, ADA improvements, or generally making
the building less "obsolescent". This clarified information should result in greater use of
the program by commercial property owners.
Action Requested
No action requested at this time.

Memorandum
TO: Economic Development Authority
FROM: Economic Development Advisory Committee
Paul Snook, Economic Development Coordinato
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 01 - 5, A Resolution Adopting the 2001 / 2002
Economic Development Strategic Plan
MEETING DATE: October 2, 2001
Introduction & Background
Per recommendation by the Economic Development Advisory Committee, the EDA is
asked to adopt Resolution No. 01 - 5, A Resolution Adopting the 2001 / 2002 Economic
Development Strategic Plan. The EDA is also asked to recommend that the City Council
adopt the Economic Development Strategic Plan.
Earlier this year, the EDA directed staff to enter a "not to exceed" agreement with
Quinlivan & Associates in the amount of $2,100 to provide facilitation services for
economic development strategic planning. A strategic planning conference was held with
Quinlivan & Associates as the facilitator. Approximately 40 economic development
stakeholders attended the conference which was an information gathering session focused
on economic development issues. Exhibit A is a report of the conference. The funds
expended for consultant services did not go beyond the original "not to exceed" amount,
and the EDAC sees no need for additional services from the consultant.
The EDAC has refined the information gathered at the conference and has prioritized
issues in developing an economic development strategic plan document. The result of this
work is Exhibit B, the 2001 / 2002 City of Shakopee Economic Development Strategic
Plan. The strategic plan outlines the following economic development issue areas:
• Economic Development Vision
• Revitalization / Redevelopment
® Historic / Heritage Preservation
• Retention and Expansion of Existing Businesses
• Available Industrial & Commercial Land
® New Business / Entrepreneurial Development
® Business Attraction / Recruitment
® Economic Development Financing
• Community -Wide High -Speed Internet Access
In addition to identifying the issue areas above, the strategic plan proposes goals,
objectives and actions to address the issues. This strategic plan is a means by which to
take a proactive approach to economic development challenges. Most importantly, the
strategic plan provides direction for the economic development program, assisting the
EDAC, EDA and City Council to identify what needs to be done to foster economic
development
Options:
1. Per recommendation by the Economic Development Advisory Committee, adopt
Resolution No. 01 - 5, A Resolution Adopting the 2001 / 2002 Economic
Development Strategic Plan; and recommend that the City Council adopt the 2001
/ 2002 Economic Development Strategic Plan.
2. Per recommendation by the Economic Development Advisory Committee, adopt
Resolution No. 01 - 5, A Resolution Adopting the 2001 / 2002 Economic
Development Strategic Plan, contingent upon changes specified by the EDA; and
recommend that the City Council adopt the 2001 / 2002 Economic Development
Strategic Plan.
3. Table and request additional information from staff.

Date: April 24, 2001
Re: Strategic Planning Report
Introduction
In September 2001 the City of Shakopee EDAC contacted Quinlivan & Associates, an economic and land use
planning firm, to submit a proposal to facilitate a strategic planning process for the EDAC. Quinlivan & Associates
submitted a proposal to the City of Shakopee EDAC specifically for the facilitation of a community information
gathering meeting, as well as to present an extended proposal to facilitate a complete strategic planning process.
The proposal for facilitating a community information gathering meeting was accepted and the meeting was held in
Shakopee on April 19, 2001. This memorandum and attachments serve as the report from this portion of the
strategic planning process. This report has been written as a confidential report to the City of Shakopee EDAC and
should be shared with other stakeholders at their discretion.
We would like to thank the community members, board members, and staff that participated in the meeting for the
time and energy they dedicated to the process.
Planning Background
The City of Shakopee Economic Development Advisory Committee Member Position Statement Description states:
"The EDAC's primary responsibility is to advise the EDA on economic development issues:
provide concentrated and dedicated work in economic development issue identification, strategy
development, and recommend actions to the EDA and City Council for implementation. "
To date, the EDAC has held a series of meetings and has developed a mission statement as follows:
"The Mission of the Shakopee Economic Development Authority is to enhance the economy of
Shakopee by broadening the city's job base and increasing its revenue base through the retention,
expansion, creation, and attraction of quality jobs and businesses, and through redevelopment
activity. "
Strategic Planning is a management tool that should be used for one purpose only — to help an organization do a
better job. When the process is accomplished in a meaningful way, it should help the Shakopee EDA to: focus its
energy, ensure that members of the organization are all working toward the same goals, assess and adjust its
direction in response to a changing environment, and focus on the future.
The ultimate result of strategic planning should be the development of a strategic plan, which is basically a set of
decisions about what to do, why to do it, and how to do it.
A well - designed plan will provide the following results:
• A clearly defined direction that guides and supports the leadership and governance of the EDA
• A uniform vision and purpose that is shared among all stakeholders
• An increased level of commitment to the Shakopee EDA and its goals
• The ability to set priorities and match financial and human capital to those priorities.
Although there are many models of strategic planning, there are basically three steps in the strategic planning
process:
Step One: Information Gathering
Step Two: The board (committee) sets goals and develops an approach to achieving the goals
Step Three: The staff and volunteers work to fulfill the goals.
Quinlivan & Associates were contracted to perform step one of the strategic planning process (information
gathering)—to facilitate the community meeting and prepare a written report to the EDAC. The results from the
meeting follow:
Report and Findings from the Strategic Planning Process
The goal for the community meeting held April 19, 2001 was to gather information from everyone present so that
people who have a stake in the organization can participate in the planning process. Meeting participants were not
asked to come to a consensus; instead they were informed that the EDAC wanted to make sure that interested and
knowledgeable individuals have a chance to be heard. In this way, the EDAC can plan in the best way and the EDA
and City of Shakopee can implement actions in the best way. The EDAC will take information gathered at this
meeting along with critical information from other stakeholders or individuals with specific expertise on the issues
the City faces, and consider all of this information as they plan the next steps of the organization.
Following is the agenda the information gathering meeting followed:
1. Welcome/Introduction
2. Overview of Planning Process
3. Overhead Presentation – Economic Development Issues in Shakopee
4. Small Group Discussions
a. What are the top five economic development issues – present or future for Shakopee?
b. What are Shakopee's assets? What conditions currently exist in the city or larger environment that could
foster the economic growth or stability of the City of Shakopee (strengths /opportunities)?
c. What are the constraints for growth in Shakopee? What conditions currently exist in the city or larger
environment that could inhibit the economic growth or stability of the City of Shakopee
(weaknesses /threats /concerns)?
5. Reporting of Issues to Large Group
6. Priorities Discussion
7. Meeting Wrap -Up
After an overhead presentation addressing economic development issues facing the City of Shakopee, meeting
participants identified several issues they felt critical to the planning process of the EDAC. These issues are listed
below in order of the priority defined by attending participants. Note: participants did not prioritize responses to
questions B and C – Shakopee's assets and constraints to growth.
A. What are the top five economic development issues – present or future for Shakopee?
1. Lack of agreed -upon and shared vision of who we can be from elected officials or people in leadership
positions.
e Primarily a need for a unified vision
e New and growing population
e Difficulty in dealing with changes – culture of city
Growth management and planning needs to be ahead of growth
2. Housing Availability
• Lack of housing in general – affordable housing in specific
• Expense of housing – difficult for employees to find housing
• Need for more diversification of housing at all levels
3. Lack of Available Industrial/Commercial Land
® Ownership issues
e What are our options?
Commercial and industrial tax base on par with housing tax base
• What type of industry?
• "Artificial" problems created from the Met Council.
4. Preservation of Downtown as Cultural Center of Community
• Essential to "essence" of Shakopee
• Expanding use of river as a resource
5. Low Cost Transportation for People Holding Entry-level Jobs
• Lack of east/west movement of roads
• Inability of having a good system to get employees across the river (from inner city)
6. Pool of Available Employees
• Middle to low -end employees is where there is the greatest need.
7. Need for a Better Understanding of Demographics as They Relate to Economic Development Issues
• Need for a better understanding with regard to the entire concept and how it relates to economic
development issues — jobs, income, housing, etc.
• An example — the community is building town homes. Do we know who is purchasing them?
• Who is moving here?
• Where do people live?
• Where do people work?
8. Communications Infrastructure
• Insufficient and essential (i.e. Qwest station not updated)
• Utilities in general are an issue
• Lack of water
• Cost
• Control of public utilities
• Franchise fees (if imposed would negatively affect high capacity industry attraction and ability to
be competitive)
• More cooperation is needed between City and Shakopee PUC
• Simplification
• More efficient process
9. Taxes
• Highest property tax area in the metro area — how does this affect us?
B. What are Shakopee's assets? What conditions currently exist in the city or larger environment that
could foster the economic growth or stability of the City of Shakopee (strengths /opportunities)?
1. Influx of population and diversity of growth
2. Quality of life — laid back/slowed down, but access to recreation, entertainment, retail — we have the whole
package
3. Valley Green Industrial Park
4. Tourism
5. Diversity of employers
6. River and old core downtown
7. Hospital
8. River separates Shakopee from rest of metro area — unique
9. Land is available
10. Transportation infrastructure — access — new bridge, 169, etc.
11. Potential for better school system
12. Expanding large retailers adding to community livability
13. Business diversity
14. Great entertainment environment in our community
15. Council member Bob Sweeney
C. What are the constraints for growth in Shakopee? What conditions currently exist in the city or larger
environment that could inhibit the economic growth or stability of the City of Shakopee
(weaknesses /threats /concerns)?
1. Political intangibles /vision
2. Improved demographic data for capital investment (projected growth)
3. Less costly broad -band internet access
4. Lack of aggressive economic development incentives
5. Lack of plan for redevelopment of downtown and First Avenue corridor
6. Planning needs to be ahead of growth
7. Transportation and cost of transportation infrastructure (lack of east/west)
8. Lack of affordable housing
9. Land development issues — i.e. expansion, Met Council, etc.
10. Diversity issues — i.e. diversity of citizens, workers, students and how that all affects the City
11. Community ethic — capacity to change
12. Impact of growth on schools and child care requirements
13. MUSA land development issue
14. Arts community in crisis at present — has a lot to do with future growth of community
15. 800+ acres owned by Mystic Lake Casino — need to run facilities through that property to develop the side
of the City southward — how does that affect growth?
Recommendations / Next Steps
1. Restate the mission of the City of Shakopee EDAC.
2. Build a vision of success for the City of Shakopee EDAC/EDA.
3. Review the critical issues defined at the information gathering meeting.

Economic Development Strategic Plan
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIC PLAN
2001/2002
City of Shakopee
Economic Development Authority
Economic Development Advisory Committee
The mission of the Shakopee Economic Development Authority is to enhance the quality
of life in Shakopee by expanding and strengthening the local economy; broadening the
city's job base and increasing it's revenue base through facilitating the retention,
expansion, creation and attraction of quality jobs and businesses, and through
appropriate redevelopment activity.
1. Economic Development Vision
The City of Shakopee does not have an updated, consensus vision for development of the
community, of which economic development is a part.
GOAL:
Shakopee will have a comprehensive plan, special area studies, and economic
development strategic plan that will direct overall development of the City and help guide
economic development decisions and activities.
OBJECTIVE:
To develop a comprehensive plan and special area studies that identify how and
where the community is going to develop in the near and long term future; and
develop an in- depth, annual strategic plan for economic development that
identifies and prioritizes economic development issues, and develops goals,
objectives and strategic actions for addressing the issues.
STRATEGIC ACTIONS:
1.1 - The EDAC and EDA will participate in developing the comprehensive plan
and special area studies, facilitated by Northwest Associated Consultants
1.2 - Formulate economic development goals and objectives
1.3 - Develop strategic actions for economic development
1.4 - Implement the strategic plan
1.5 - Annually review, evaluate and update the strategic plan
2. Revitalization /Redevelopment
The City of Shakopee needs an ongoing plan and actions for the revitalization and
redevelopment of older commercial areas of Shakopee (Downtown, lst Avenue Corridor,
Riverfront), inclusive of a plan for historic preservation.
GOAL:
Our community will have a plan that will direct revitalization and redevelopment of the
older commercial areas of Shakopee (Downtown, 1" Avenue Corridor, Riverfront),
inclusive of a plan for historic preservation.
OBJECTIVE:
To develop special area studies that identify how and where the community is
going to redevelop in the near and long term future. To evaluate property in the
older commercial areas on an annual basis, noting the disposition of sites relative
to condition for redevelopment i.e. blight condition; inappropriate land use;
underutilized land; etc. while maintaining sensitivity to historic resources. To
develop and maintain an inventory of potential redevelopment sites and take
actions to facilitate redevelopment of the sites by the private sector.
STRATEGIC ACTIONS:
2.1 - The EDAC and EDA will participate in developing the special area studies
facilitated by Northwest Associated Consultants.
2.2 - Identify areas of blight, underutilized land, and inappropriate land use.
2.3 - Pursue opportunities to assemble property along the Downtown / First
Avenue / Riverfront corridor and prepare for redevelopment.
2.4 - Working with local financial institutions, continue the Fagade Loan
Program and Downtown Design Guidelines to encourage restoration of
downtown's historic core. Works with banks to make FLP interest rate
more of an incentive.
2.5 - Continue implementing Small Cities Development Program
2.6 - Conduct a market analysis for the Downtown / 1 St Avenue corridor. Update
regularly.
2.7 - Work with Vision Shakopee to create a "Downtown Recruitment Team"
that would recruit retailers and other commercial enterprises to locate in the
downtown/ 1 St Avenue corridor.
3. Historic Preservation
Historic preservation has often been portrayed as the alternative to economic development —
"either we have historic preservation OR we have economic growth." This is a false choice.
Increasingly around the country historic preservation is becoming a uniquely effective tool
for economic development. Historic preservation has moved from being an end it itself (save
old buildings in order to save old buildings) to being a vehicle of broader ends — center city
revitalization, job creation, small business incubation, housing, tourism, and others.
• Downtown is a symbol of community economic health, local quality of life, pride,
and community history. These are all factors in industrial, commercial and
professional recruitment.
• A vital downtown retains and creates jobs, which also means a stronger tax base.
Long -term revitalization establishes capable businesses that use public services
and provide tax revenues for the community.
• Downtown is also a good incubator for new small businesses -- the building
blocks of a healthy economy. Strip centers and malls are often too expensive for
new entrepreneurs.
• A vital downtown area reduces sprawl by concentrating retail and services in one
area and uses community resources wisely, such as infrastructure, tax dollars and
land.
• A healthy downtown core protects property values in surrounding residential
neighborhoods.
• The traditional commercial district is an ideal location for independent
businesses, which in turn:
• Keep profits in town. Chain businesses send profits out of town.
• Supports local families with family -owned businesses
• Supports local community projects, such as ball teams and schools
• Provide an extremely stable economic foundation, as opposed to a few
large businesses and chains with no ties to stay in the community
• A revitalized downtown increases the community's options for goods and services:
whether for basic staples, like clothing, food and professional services or less
traditional functions such as housing and entertainment.
• Downtown provides an important civic forum, where members of the community
can congregate. Parades, special events and celebrations held there reinforce
intangible sense of community. Private developments like malls can and do
restrict free speech and access.
4
The Downtown district is a tourist attraction by virtue of the character of
buildings, location, selection of unique businesses, and events held there.
GOAL:
Shakopee will have an overall plan for historic preservation, of which the original /
historic commercial area (downtown) is a part. The historic preservation plan will be
complementary to the redevelopment plan. Preserving and revitalizing Downtown
Shakopee is an important and worthwhile investment in the economic health and quality
of life in our community.
OBJECTIVE:
To develop a plan for historic preservation of the entire community, inclusive of
the downtown historic business district, that is reviewed, evaluated and updated
annually. The historic preservation plan will be complementary to the
redevelopment plan.
STRATEGIC ACTIONS:
3.1 - Continue use of Downtown Design Guidelines; update as needed
3.2- Develop and adopt a Heritage Preservation Ordinance
3.3- Create a Heritage Preservation Commission (part of the ordinance)
3.4- Work with the Minnesota Historical Society, State Historic Preservation
Office (SHPO) to attain Certified Local Government (CLG) status. CLG
status qualifies a local government for state historic preservation grants and
technical assistance (In order to become a CLG, a city must adopt a heritage
preservation ordinance and create a heritage preservation commission).
3.5 - Conduct a survey of historic resources (finance survey with CLG grant
funds)
4. Retention and Expansion of Existing Businesses
A business retention and expansion program provides a structured means for a community to
assess its business climate and helps to develop programs and policies to promote economic
growth. The program promotes job retention and growth by identifying the concerns and
barriers to growth facing local existing businesses. Studies show that existing firms create 40
to 80 percent of all new jobs. It is easier to attract new business if it can be demonstrated that
existing companies are successful and expanding. Local company owners and representatives
become "ambassadors" to prospective new firms. A formal business retention and expansion
program is essential to maintaining and growing the existing business /economic base.
GOAL:
Shakopee will have a formal business retention and expansion (BRE) program to maintain
and grow the existing business /economic base.
OBJECTIVE:
Identify options for an effective business retention and expansion program and
initiate program. BRE visits done on an annual basis.
STRATEGIC ACTIONS:
5.1 - Consider U of M Extension BRE Program
5.2 - Develop formal existing business survey
5.3 - Develop regular call program as part of BRE strategy
5.4 - Work with Chamber of Commerce on retention initiatives (industry
appreciation / recognition; facilitating business training seminars;
networking; MN Manufacturer's Week etc.)
5.5 - Create Business Assistance Guide
5.6 - Improve access to technical assistance from community and four -year
colleges in the area (on-the-job training, engineering technology, etc.)
5.7 - Co- sponsor business training with the Chamber of Commerce, SCEDC and
other organizations.
5.8 - Work with Small Business Development Centers, MN Department of Trade
& Economic Development, Service Corps of Retired Executives (SCORE)
and other similar groups to make sure that local businesses are getting the
maximum possible benefit from their services.
5. Available Industrial & Commercial Land
Available commercial and industrial land with sufficient access and utilities is an essential
element to economic development. Shakopee's current supply of available commercial and
industrial land is in short supply. In order to keep growth of the commercial / industrial
property tax base on par with growth of the residential property tax base, the City needs more
commercial / industrial land for future development.
GOAL:
Shakopee will have an ample supply of land zoned for commercial, industrial and office
development to keep the growth of the commercial / industrial tax base on pace with
residential tax base.
OBJECTIVE:
Identify likely future parcels for industrial, commercial and office development
and annex / zone accordingly.
STRATEGIC ACTIONS:
4.1 - Create new comprehensive plan and special area studies, showing likely
future parcels for industrial, commercial and office development
4.2 - Continue annexation discussions with Jackson Township; develop and adopt
agreement.
6. New Business / Entrepreneurial Development
A comprehensive economic development program needs a formal plan that fosters local
entrepreneurial activity and start-up of new businesses.
Entrepreneurship is central to the functioning of market economies. Entrepreneurs, people
who start businesses and make businesses grow, are essential agents of change who
accelerate the generation, application and spread of innovative ideas. In doing so, they are
primary contributors and mobilizers of resources to develop the local economy. They provide
employment to others and themselves, which in turn contributes to a healthy and viable
community life.
Fostering entrepreneurship requires that impediments to entrepreneurship be lessened and
that the conditions be established in which innovation can flourish. Fostering
entrepreneurship also involves creating and implementing programs that augment the supply
of information, encourage networking, facilitate the provision of finance, and seek to create
positive attitudes towards entrepreneurial activity.
GOAL:
Shakopee will have a program that fosters entrepreneurial activity and development
of new businesses.
OBJECTIVE:
To develop a formal plan of action to encourage entrepreneurial activity and new
business development.
STRATEGIC ACTIONS:
6.1 - Improve communication and networking among entrepreneurs, government,
financing sources, and others involved in new business development.
6.2 - Provide technical assistance, including market evaluation and business
planning, to new businesses and those considering establishing a business
(work with SBDC, SCORE)
6.3 - Assist new businesses and entrepreneurs to find financing
6.4 - Survey local businesses to find out what supplies, component parts, or
services they now buy from outside the area but would prefer to buy locally.
6.5- Provide reasonably priced physical space and support services to new
businesses. Work with other Scott County communities through Scott
County ED Coalition to initiate an entrepreneurial / new business
development program; through information provided by National Business
Incubation Association, study feasibility of creating an (Scott County) area
business incubator; pool resources with other communities to develop.
7. Business Attraction / Recruitment
The primary goal of an attraction effort in an economic development program is to influence
business site selection decisions through developing and implementing marketing techniques.
This is vital to attracting new investment and employment from outside the area. More
importantly, due to scarce resources, marketing efforts should be targeted to the types of
industries and businesses for which Shakopee's assets are major location factors. In order to
realize optimum investment by firms from outside the community, Shakopee needs a more
proactive business attraction program.
GOAL:
Shakopee has a business attraction element within its economic development program
that focuses marketing efforts on targeted industries / businesses that best fit the
community, attracting commercial and industrial enterprises that contribute to the city's
tax base and provide jobs appropriate for the community.
OBJECTIVE:
Develop, implement and manage a comprehensive and coordinated economic
development marketing program, targeting industries / businesses that best fit
Shakopee.
STRATEGIES /ACTION STEPS
7.1 - Improve communication and networking among entrepreneurs, government,
financing sources, and others involved in new business development.
7.2- Create a targeted marketing plan, inclusive of positioning the community to
respond to the product and information needs of the potential investor
(preparing); communicating the product's capabilities to targeted potential
investors (prospecting); and facilitating the decision - making activities of
those investors who have expressed an interest in the product (prospect
handling).
7.3 - Identify specific industry sectors / business targets
7.4 - Implement marketing program
7.5 - Evaluate marketing program
8. Economic Development Financing
A comprehensive economic development program includes a broad array of economic
development finance tools /programs. As local economic development finance tools,
Shakopee has used local property tax -based financing mechanisms such as tax increment
financing and tax abatement. Also available are the financing programs through sources such
as Small Business Administration, and various state (DTED) and federal programs (CDBG).
Shakopee lacks local non - property tax based financing mechanisms for economic
development such as a revolving loan fund.
GOAL:
Shakopee will have a variety of economic development financing tools for retention and
expansion of existing businesses, new business development, and attraction / recruitment
of businesses from outside the community, including a local revolving loan fund.
OBJECTIVE:
Develop a variety of financial incentives to leverage the expansion and attraction
of targeted enterprises to strengthen and diversify the local economy, including
creating a local revolving loan fund for economic development.
STRATEGIES /ACTION STEPS
8.1 - Identify existing financing / programs
8.2 - Research various revolving loan funds from other economic development
organizations
8.3 - Research utility -based economic development financing programs from
other communities
8.4 - Review other community fagade / building improvement loan programs;
meet with banks to make Fagade Loan Program more of an incentive
(interest rate)
M
9. Hi Speed Internet Access
High -speed internet service in Shakopee is inaccessible in many areas. Since the service can
be a real advantage to businesses, not having DSL is an economic development concern.
GOAL:
Shakopee has high -speed internet access throughout the community to be competitive for
investment / business locations.
OBJECTIVE:
To bring high -speed internet access to Shakopee that is available community -wide
STRATEGIES /ACTION STEPS
9.1 - Remain in contact with Qwest to monitor DSL rollout.
9.2 - Research alternatives to existing or proposed high -speed internet access
(Roadrunner, Qwest, etc.) such as high -speed wireless DSL.
9.3 - Contact City of Roseville to inquire about their test of wireless data network.
9.4 - Contact City of Lakefield regarding their integration of ring fiber system and
wireless internet.

ADJ. REGULAR SESSION SHAKOPEE, MINNESOTA AUGUST 9,2001
Mayor Brekke called the meeting to order at 5:00 p.m. with Council Members Link, Amundson,
orke (5:15), and Sweeney present. Also present: Mark McNeill, City Administrator, Bruce
Loney, Public Works Director /City Engineer; Judith S. Cox, City Clerk; Tracy Coenen, Management
Assistant; Mark Themig, Facilities and Recreation Director and Marilyn Remer, Payroll/Benefits
Coordinator.
Mr. McNeill, City Administrator, stated that the consultant for the compensation study would not be
in attendance until approximately 5:30 p.m., therefore, the discussion of the Valley View Road
improvement/Assessment project was initiated.
Mr. Bruce Loney, Public Works Director /City Engineer, approached the podium to discuss the
limited benefit appraisals and the work that has been done on the proposed Valley View Road
Improvement project. Mr. Loney stated there had been a public hearing and quite a bit of discussion
has been held on the benefit of the road project. Some of the properties were in MUSA and some
properties were not. A survey was sent to the affected properties asking if these properties ever
wanted sanitary sewer because the sewer would affect the limited benefit appraisals. Some surveys
were received back by the City of Shakopee as of this date and some of the properties involved
wanted to wait and respond to the survey until after they saw what the benefit was either way.
Because the Council needed to discuss the limited benefit appraisals this information needed to be
made public. Mayor Brekke stated that there would not be time for public testimony tonight but
there would be opportunities for public testimony in front of the Council in the future. Patchin
Messner Appraisals performed the benefit appraisals for the nine selected parcels along Valley View
Road. Cncl. Sweeney asked Mr. Loney to explain what a limited benefit appraisal was versus a full-
blown appraisal. Mr. Loney responded to this request.
Mr. Loney showed on a map where the benefit appraisals were performed on properties that were
affected by this Valley View Road Improvement project. Because of the amount of lots that could be
created by the other properties fronting on Valley View Road, the City was convinced that benefit
could be shown for extending the sewer and water. How much the sewer and water would benefit the
parcels on the bluff line was the question. A series of drawings was done with Bolten and Menk to
come up with a number of concepts of possible lots for development. The limited benefit appraisal
was done with the improvement for bituminous street, curb and gutter, storm sewer and municipal
water and sewer. In the O'Laughlin parcel according to the appraisal of Patchin Messner, there really
was not enough space to subdivide the parcel. The Smith and Hennes' parcels are parcels that could
be subdivided if given access to Valley View Road. These three properties of O'Laughlin, Smith and
Hennes are already in MUSA but they were analyzed because of their similarity to the difficulty of
benefit question raised at the public hearing.
Some of the highlights of Mr. Loney's report are: According to the City's opinion and the Bolten and
Menk analysis, the Huth property could be subdivided. The Burke and Fonder parcels which have a
Official Proceedings of the August 9, 2001
Shakopee City Council Page —2-
shared driveway are not developable along Valley View Road but elsewhere. The Schultz' parcel
would not be benefited by Valley View Road, but could be developed with access to a road to the
south. The Kahnke and Larsen properties could be subdivided. According to the limited benefit
appraisals, if the property could be subdivided then the benefit of the assessments was withheld. If a
property could not be subdivided, there was some loss of assessment. The loss of the assessments on
the limited benefit appraisal was approximately $51,000. It was felt by the City that some of the
septic systems and wells in this questioned area were probably getting to the end of their life
expectancy.
An analysis for the benefit for each lot was done just for bituminous curb and street and storm sewer.
The result of this analysis was a benefit of approximately $10,000 per lot. With this scenario the
benefit goes way down, the City would have to pick up approximately $600,000 in additional cost if
sewer and water were not included.
Some direction is needed from the Council. The City should move forward with these benefit
appraisals and have a meeting with the affected property owners and after that meeting this issue
should be brought back to a formal Council meeting. Mr. Loney stated that if a meeting was held
with the affected parties then the City could get a better idea of what the affected property owners
wanted to do.
Cncl. Morke arrived and took his seat.
Cncl. Sweeney stated the option did exist to run the sewer and water on the north side of Valley View
Road in the right -of -way. This way the residents on the south side of Valley View Road would not
have to pay the assessments now, but if they ever wanted the sewer and water in the future, it would
be possible to connect. The stub -ins would not be put in for the present residents, because once the
stub -ins are present the benefit is there. The residents would have to pay the entire amount of going
across the road to get this connection to the sewer and water, but it could be done. The developer on
the north side of Valley View Road will pay for the water and sewer if his development is the only
benefited party. If this sewer and water is put on the south side where parcels will benefit, but it is
not wanted, the general levied taxpayers will be asked to come up with the money to improve the
properties on the south side of Valley View Road.
Cncl. Link questioned the upgrading of Valley View Road without all the water and sewer being to
the south side. He didn't want to have to keep digging Valley View Road up.
Cncl. Sweeney wondered if the City Attorney could come up with a way of postponing the
assessments to the residents south of Valley View Road until such time that these residents use the
sewer and water, laterals and stub -ins could be extended under Valley View Road. This would be the
most acceptable position on the Valley View Road improvements.
Official Proceedings of the August 9, 2001
Shakopee City Council Page —3-
Mr. Loney stated the real need of the project is to pave Valley View Road. The main cost of the
Valley View Road improvement project is the paving of Valley View Road; the sewer and water
improvements provides the most benefit. Mr. Loney will follow up with the City Attorney to see if
there is a way to postpone assessments to the residents south of Valley View Road. It was felt that
the land south of Valley View Road would develop soon because of its proximity to major highways.
If it is decided to go ahead with the Valley View Road Improvements by having the general taxpayers
levied for the assessments then Cncl. Sweeney stated he would like to see this question of the Valley
View Road improvements be on a referendum.
Mayor Brekke felt the limited benefit appraisals did give the City some good information to base
decisions on regarding the residents affected on the Valley View Road Improvement. The
assessments for sanitary sewer could be looked at to see if some adjustment could be made here.
Other developments were discussed for possible water and sewer possibilities. There was discussion
on how Valley View Road was to be used. Valley View Road would be a minor collector street.
The City does have a letter of credit from the developers on the north side of Valley View Road for
some of the assessments for Valley View Road but the City is at risk of losing this commitment
because there are no pending assessments levied because a project has not been ordered and time is
running out. Mr. Loney thought this letter of credit needed to be increased and updated. There are a
number of issues regarding the Valley View Road improvements.
Sweeney /Amundson moved to direct staff to consult with the City Attorney to determine if
assessments could be suspended on the south side of Valley View Road for the six (6) affected
property owners at this time. Motion carried unanimously.
Sweeney /Amundson moved to direct the City Attorney and City Engineer to enter into discussions
with the developers to increase and update the letters of credit on the assessments pertaining to
Valley View Road. Motion carried unanimously.
Sweeney /Amundson moved to direct staff to determine the policy under which the general taxpayers
of the City of Shakopee can participate in the cost of roads thru the referendum process.
Cncl. Amundson seconded for discussion and asked Cncl. Sweeney to explain his motion.
Cncl. Sweeney explained that there would be this type road project in the future to come before the
Council and a policy needed to be in place to handle the situation when it resurfaced. Mayor Brekke
felt people would not see the greater good and he would reluctantly vote against this motion. Cncl.
Morke agreed with Cncl. Sweeney because he felt if the City of Shakopee had road projects that were
not petitioned the City would have problems getting assessments to stick. Cncl. Morke would
support the motion. Cncl. Amundson felt this would be putting residents against residents.
Official Proceedings of the August 9, 2001
Shakopee City Council Page —4-
Mr. McNeill clarified the motion made by Cncl. Sweeney.
Cncl. Sweeney explained the bonding process for roads.
Motion carried 3 -2 with Cncl_ Amundson and Mayor Brekke dissenting.
It was Council's general consensus that staff would get in contact and resurvey the property owners
and then would report back their findings to the City Council.
The cost of the limited benefit appraisal was approximately $11,500.
Mr. McNeill opened the presentation of the Compensation Study for Non -Union employees that
Riley, Dettmann & Kelsey proposed. This compensation study was an attempt to update the City's
pay plan which was last updated in 1996. Mr. Kelsey presented a draft of the base pay plan for non-
union employees. Mr. Kelsey was attempting to get the Council's perspective on the base pay plan
for non -union employees. Mr. Kelsey wanted to know if the draft of the proposed base pay plan
addressed the issues in the RFP, if the proposed pay plan repositioned the City's pay practices in a
way which the City intended, and Mr. Kelsey wanted the Council to look at some cost implications
relative to the proposed pay structure.
Mr. Kelsey stated that the Department Heads were met with to start the study and then the
Department Heads along with a group of employees acted as two advisory teams to Mr. Kelsey. A
few jobs had changed enough that some additional information needed to be provided via
questionnaires. The proposed number of pay grades fell from 18 to 13. It was felt that 13 pay grades
was sufficient to cover the roster of the jobs. Market survey data was collected from 10 jurisdictions
that were similar in makeup to the City of Shakopee. Mr. McNeill stated that he felt there was
concern by the department heads that an accurate picture for the City of Shakopee was not forth
coming from jurisdictions that were 25,000 in population and below. The City of Shakopee is going
through development pressures and specialized positions are needed at this time in some positions.
The group of Cities now being looked at, is probably more accurate with the City of Shakopee for
comparison purposes.
Mr. Kelsey stated that an internal evaluation along with the survey data is how Riley, Dettmann &
Kelsey came up with the proposed pay structure for non -union positions. This proposed pay plan
would present some implementation issues. Riley, Dettmann & Kelsey would perform pay equity
testing until the pay roster has been finalized because the City needed to continue to stay in
compliance with the pay equity act. Riley, Dettmann & Kelsey also felt there were some legal issues
that needed to be looked at by legal people. Mr. Kelsey stated that he would be available for follow -
up and would have employee meetings for employee input after the new pay structure had been put in
practice. Mr. Kelsey went over the new proposed grade levels and pay maximums.
Official Proceedings of the August 9, 2001
Shakopee City Council Page —5-
Mr. Kelsey heard staff saying that staff would like to see Mr. Kelsey address the step program; this he
did with a tiered plan. Mr. Kelsey will also address spot recognition and variable pay after the revised
base pay plan is in place. Mr. Kelsey suggested a slight change in administrative practice regarding
the pay at which an employee can be hired, i.e. somewhere other than at the starting step, but not at
the top step.
Before a pay structure is adopted, Mayor Brekke would like to see the before and after pictures of a
position. A couple of positions were downgraded a step. Cncl. Sweeney was concerned about
attaching personality to the steps. Mayor Brekke felt there needed to be strong justification as to why
a classification was downgraded. Mr. Kelsey will follow -up with a letter on the reasoning for why a
classification was downgraded. The engineering positions were discussed. Mr. Kelsey felt the
engineering positions and engineering support positions were well positioned. There will be
continued review of the Engineering Department because the structure of this department was looked
at. Engineering Departments all over the Metro are experiencing engineering difficulties. The benefit
issue (mainly medical) was discussed along with how benefits were structured and delivered.
Working off a base line, Mr. Kelsey stated as of 12/31/01 the union and non -union personnel of the
City of Shakopee base pay is approximately $3.9 million. Mr. Kelsey suggested that the Council
approve an adjustment of 3.5% to all employees base pay effective 1/1/02 that are affected by this
plan. This is an investment of approximately $77,000. The second step Mr. Kelsey suggested was
placing employees at the closest step in the proposed pay plan to where their step is now when the
3.5% has been made. This would require an investment of approximately $59,000. The final step is
to consider approving and additional step movement effective 7/1/02 for individuals who have long
employment service with the City. This would require an additional investment of around $12,000.
The total investment for this particular pay plan would be approximately $148,000. Mr. Kelsey
suggested adjustment to the 2003 pay schedule by 2.9 to 3.5 percent to keep the City of Shakopee
competitive. Mr. Kelsey suggested that the City move away from the anniversary date for step
movement and give the step movement at the I' of each year. Mr. Kelsey also suggested granting the
step movement mid year in 2003 to address some of his concerns. Mayor Brekke was concerned
about the I' of the year being the anniversary date for every employee of the City. Mr. Kelsey stated
that the management team needed to be real clear on criteria being used for employees because all
employees needed to treated equally.
There needs to be a common approach by the management team for spot recognition. Mr. Kelsey
stated a process would be built into the pay program in which an employee can ask for a review as to
where their job is placed in the overall system. The value of the job versus the value of the employee
needs to be kept separate. The job description is very important and needs to be reviewed on a
regular basis. There were some implementation issues that still needed to be discussed, according to
Mr. Kelsey. Mr. Kelsey stated that he hoped that the pay plan system would be flexible enough in its
administration that the hiring and selection and also the delivery stage so that some problems from the
past can be avoided. It is expensive to loose employees.

Mr. Loney thought if a job description was so important then someone with job description training
should help the department heads write the job descriptions so there is consistency.
Mayor Brekke stated that tonight a very comprehensive review of the pay plan was presented and
discussed.
Cncl. Sweeney showed the project style of pump house #12 that was select by the Shakopee Public
Utilities Commission unanimously out of 5 possible choices. This pump house was designed to fit
into the neighborhood.
Sweeney /Amundson moved to adjourn the meeting to Monday August 13, 2001, at 5:00 p.m. The
meeting adjourned at 6:59 p.m. Motion carried unanimously.

High Five Erectors has made application for an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan reguiding
property from Entertainment to Light Industrial and an amendment to the Zoning Map rezoning
property from Major Recreation / Planned Unit Development (MR -PUD) to Light Industrial (I -1).
The applicant has submitted a building permit at the site and have agreed to a Waiver and Hold
Harmless Agreement (see Exhibit C) to begin construction before City Council approval of above
changes. Currently the property is part of a Planned Unit Development (PUD) approved in 1992. Any
additions or changes to the property require an amendment to this PUD. The applicant has previously
had four (4) PUD amendments to accommodate additions to the property. The rezoning request will
eliminate the PUD to further ease current and future expansions, additions, or changes.
Discussion:
The City's Comprehensive Plan sets basic policies to guide the development of the City. The purpose
of designating different areas for residential, commercial, and industrial land uses is to promote the
location of compatible land uses, as well as to prevent incompatible land uses from being located in
close proximity to one another. The Zoning Ordinance is one of the legal means by which the City
implements the Comprehensive Plan. Under Minnesota statute, zoning is to conform with a city's
comprehensive plan.
Both the adopted and proposed city land use plans guide the subject property for entertainment
use to accommodate possible future expansion of adjacent Canterbury Downs. This site is also
adjacent to industrial districts, which have seen much faster growth than the Major Recreation
area. The proposed rezoning is consistent with the proposed reguiding of the Comprehensive
Plan. Exhibits D provides a listing of the uses, both permitted and conditional, that are allowed in
the M -R and I -1 _ Copies of the land use plans are available for viewing at City Hall and will be
made available at the September 20, 2001 meeting.
The building addition that is the catalyst for this reguiding and rezoning request is 1200 square foot
expansion to be used for office space.

The criteria required for the granting of a Comprehensive Plan Amendment are listed below with
proposed findings for the Commission's consideration.

RE: Approval of Amendment to:
High Five Erectors. Inc.
Zoning Ordinance
Gentlemen:
High Five Erectors. Inc. is a steel erection company incorporated in the State of
Minnesota in 1987. High Five Erectors' offiee!shop building is located at 700 Canterbury
Road, Shakopee, Minnesota. We have been at this location since 1992. When we
purchased the property it was zoned - `RTD" — (Race Track District). At that time the
possibility of expanding the race track and related race track businesses was very high.
Since that time the area has become much more business orientated. There have been
significant changes in this neighborhood development pattern_ There are parcels of land
directly to our north and east that are zoned "I -1" (Light Industrial) and the land directly
to our south is the Valley Green Workforce Development Center. Since we purchased the
land, the City of Shakopee has re -zoned the area to be "Recreational". We don't believe
we should be included in that zoning of "Recreational", we should be included with our
neighbors as "Light Industrial".
C haracter of Amending the Zoning Ord inance
Scope: Amend Zoning from Recreational to Light Industrial.
Type: This property is used for the office, shop and storage of a steel erection
company.
Site: Lot 1, Block 1, Behringer's First Addition. Approximately a 5 acre parcel,
located at 700 Canterbury Road, Shakopee, Minnesota
Impact: The amendment of this zoning would have no impact on the adjacent
Properties, most are already zoned as Industrial.

Memorandum
uNSENT
To: Honorable Mayor, City Council
Mark McNeill, City Administrator
From: Dan Hughes, Chief of Police �w
Date: October 1, 2001
Subject: Civil Defense Siren Purchase
Introduction
The Police Department is seeking approval to purchase a Civil Defense warning siren to
meet the growth needs of the City.
Background
The City's commercial and residential areas have expanded past the range of our existing
siren placements. The new siren will be strategically placed in an area of the City which
will meet existing and future needs. Tentative plans are to place the new siren in the
southern portion of the City to fill a void in the existing siren plat. We will continue to
work with the Scott County Emergency Management to site our sirens in the most
effective areas.
Budget Impact
The number of vendors available to provide bids on civil defense sirens is limited. Bids
were received from two vendors; Front Line Fire & Rescue, Monticello, Mn. and Fesler's
Inc., North Liberty, Iowa. Front Line has supplied sirens to the City in the past.
Front Line Plus Fire & Rescue
Whelen WPS 2800 -5 siren $14,000.00
MN sales tax $ 910.00
Shipping $ 475.00
Total $15,385.00
Fesler's, Inc.
Whelen WPS 2800 -5 siren and
shipping to Shakopee $15,470.00
Tax $ 965.00
Total $16,435.00
The 2002 Police Department budget has $20,000 identified for the purchase and
installation of a new civil defense siren. The vendors have indicated a 3% increase in
siren prices due to become effective within the next 60 days.
The estimated delivery time for sirens has been 12 weeks in previous years. The vendors
report the manufacturers have increased the estimated delivery time to 18 weeks. If we
want a chance to have the siren installed before the 2002 severe weather season we
should order the siren soon. The vendors will not bill for the siren until it is shipped from
the factory.
Action Requested
If Council concurs, they should, by motion, authorize the appropriate City staff to
purchase a Whelen Model WPS 2800 -5 civil defense warning siren from Front Line Fire
& Rescue for no more than $15,385.00.

CITY OF SHAKOPEE
Memorandum
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Mark McNeill, City Administrator
SUBJECT: Architect Contract — Police Building
DATE: September 28, 2001
INTRODUCTION:
15 - - ft. 3 1
The Council is asked to approve a contract for architectural services with Boarman,
Kroos, Vogel Group, Inc. for design of the police building. Also included in this would
be a master plan for co- locating a future City Hall.
Last Fall, the City Council directed that BKV Group be designated the architect for a new
library, and a new police building. A contract was entered into by BKV for design of the
library building. In March, BKV submitted to staff a proposed contract for architectural
services for the police building. However, because of funding uncertainties, that project
was placed "on hold" until July, when a determination was made by the City Council to
proceed with design of the police building. We still anticipate a Spring, 2002 start.
BKV has begun work again on the police building, but as of this time is working without
a contract. Principal David Kroos was directed to update the contract to include planning
for the location of a City Hall building on the Gorman Street site. The new contract
reflects this, and will provide a building concept for the future City Hall building, as it
would relate to the site design of the police - building project. It will assist in future
planning, and allow the future City Hall building to be of a design to compliment the
anticipated police building.
BUDGET IMPACT:
The compensation for this work shall be 8% of the cost of work for the police facility,
and a lump sum of $17,500 for the City Hall site study /master plan. Also included as
expenses are reimbursable expenses as described in the contract.
These costs will be factored into the building budget, and will be paid for through
building fund, and through an interfund loan, recommended to be from the sanitary sewer
fund at his time. The City Council will need to formalize that loan in the future as costs
are more defined.
The City Attorney has reviewed and approved the proposed contract. In the interest of
brevity the "General Conditions of the Contract for Construction" have been omitted. If
there is a desire to review all of the document, the complete contract is in the office of the
City Administrator.
I recommend that the contract for architectural services be approved.
t 11 a
If the Council concurs, it should, by motion, authorize the appropriate City officials to
execute the Standard Form of Agreement Between Owner (City of Shakopee) and
Architect (Boarman, Kroos, Vogel Group, Inc.) with Standard Form of Architect's
Services for the design of the Shakopee Police building and City Hall site master plan.

approval of governmental authorities having jurisdiction over the Project.
2.1.7 EVALUATION OF BUDGET AND COST OF THE WORK
2.1.7.1 When the Project requirements have been sufficiently identified, the Architect shall prepare a preliminary estimate of the
Cost of the Work. This estimate may be based on current area, volume or similar conceptual estimating techniques. As the design
process progresses through the end of the preparation of the Construction Documents, the Architect shall update and refine the
preliminary estimate of the Cost of the Work. The Architect shall advise the Owner of any adjustments to previous estimates of
the Cost of the Work indicated by changes in Project requirements or general market conditions. If at any time the Architect's
estimate of the Cost of the Work exceeds the Owner's budget, the Architect shall make appropriate recommendations to the
Owner to adjust the Project's size, quality or budget, and the Owner shall cooperate with the Architect in making such
adjustments.
2.1.7.2 Evaluations of the Owner's budget for the Project, the preliminary estimate of the Cost of the Work and updated
estimates of the Cost of the Work prepared by the Architect represent the Architect'sjudgment as a design professional familiar
with the construction industry. It is recognized, however, that neither the Architect nor the Owner has control over the cost of
labor, materials or .equipment, over the Contractor's methods of determining bid prices, or over competitive bidding, market or
negotiating conditions. Accordingly, the Architect cannot and does not warrant or represent that bids or negotiated prices will not
vary from the Owner'sbudget for the Project or from any estimate of the Cost of the Work or evaluation prepared or agreed to by

bidding and price escalation; to determine what materials, equipment, component systems and types of construction are to be
included in the Contract Documents; to make reasonable adjustments in the scope of the Project and to include in the Contract
Documents alternate bids as may be necessary to adjust the estimated Cost of the Work to meet the Owner'sbudget for the Cost of
the Work. If an increase in the Contract Sum occurring after execution of the Contract between the Owner and the Contractor
causes the budget for the Cost of the Work to be exceeded, that budget shall be increased accordingly.
2.1.7.4 If bidding or negotiation has not commenced within 90 days after the Architect submits the Construction Documents to
the Owner, the budget for the Cost of the Work shall be adjusted to reflect changes in the general level of prices in the
construction industry.
2.1.7.5 If the budget for the Cost of the Work is exceeded by the lowest bona fide bid or negotiated proposal, the Owner shall:
.1 give written approval of an increase in the budget for the Cost of the Work;
.2 authorize rebidding or renegotiating of the Project within a reasonable time;
.3 terminate in accordance with Subparagraph 1.3.8.5; or
.4 cooperate in revising the Project scope and quality as required to reduce the Cost of the Work.
2.1.7.6 If the Owner chooses to proceed under Clause 2.1.7.5.4, the Architect, with witheu E additional compensation, shall
modify the documents for which the Architect is responsible under this Agreement as necessary to comply with the budget for the
Cost of the Work. The modification of such documents shall be the limit of the Architect's responsibility under this Paragraph
2.1.7. The Architect shall be entitled to compensation in accordance with this Agreement for all services performed whether or

necessary, the Architect shall prepare, reproduce and distribute Drawings and Specifications to describe Work to be added,
deleted or modified, as provided in Paragraph 2.8.2.
2.6.5.2 The Architect shall review properly prepared, timely requests by the Owner or Contractor for changes in the Work,
including adjustments to the Contract Sum or Contract Time. A properly prepared request for a change in the Work shall be
accompanied by sufficient supporting data and information to permit the Architect to make a reasonable determination without
extensive investigation or preparation of additional drawings or specifications. If the Architect determines that requested changes
in the Work are not materially different from the requirements of the Contract Documents, the Architect may issue an order for a
minor change in the Work or recommend to the Owner that the requested change be denied.
2.6.5.3 If the Architect determines that implementation of the requested changes would result in a material change to the
Contract that may cause an adjustment in the Contract Time or Contract Sum, the Architect shall make a recommendation to the
Owner, who may authorize further investigation of such change. Upon such authorization, and based upon information furnished
by the Contractor, if any, the Architect shall estimate the additional cost and time that might result from such change, including
any additional costs attributable to a Change in Services of the Architect. With the Owner's approval, the Architect shall
incorporate those estimates into a Change Order or other appropriate documentation for the Owner'sexecution or negotiation with

ARTICLE 1 GENERAL PROVISIONS
1.1 BASIC DEFINITIONS
1.1.1 THE CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
The Contract Documents consist of the Agreement between Owner and Contractor (hereinafter the Agreement), Conditions of the
Contract (General, Supplementary and other Conditions), Drawings, Specifications, Addenda issued prior to execution of the
Contract, other documents listed in the Agreement and Modifications issued after execution of the Contract. A Modification is (1)
a written amendment to the Contract signed by both parties, (2) a Change Order, (3) a Construction Change Directive or (4) a
written order for a minor change in the Work issued by the Architect. Unless specifically enumerated in the Agreement, the
Contract Documents do not include other documents such as bidding requirements (advertisement or invitation to bid,
Instructions to Bidders, sample forms, the Contractor's bid or portions of Addenda relating to bidding requirements) .
1.1.2 THE CONTRACT
The Contract Documents form the Contract for Construction. The Contract represents the entire and integrated agreement
between the parties hereto and supersedes prior negotiations, representations or agreements, either written or oral. The Contract
may be amended or modified only by a Modification. The Contract Documents shall not be construed to create a contractual
relationship of any kind (1) between the Architect and Contractor, (2) between the Owner and a Subcontractor or
Sub - subcontractor, (3) between the Owner and Architect or (4) between any persons or entities other than the Owner and
Contractor. The Architect shall, however, be entitled to performance and enforcement of obligations under the Contract intended
to facilitate performance of the Architect's duties.
1.1.3 THE WORK
The term "Work" means the construction and services required by the Contract Documents, whether completed or partially
completed, and includes all other labor, materials, equipment and services provided or to be provided by the Contractor to fulfill
the Contractor's obligations. The Work may constitute the whole or a part of the Project.
1.1.4 THE PROJECT
The Project is the total construction of which the Work performed under the Contract Documents may be the whole or a part and
which may include construction by the Owner or by separate contractors.
1.1.5 THE DRAWINGS
The Drawings are the graphic and pictorial portions of the Contract Documents showing the design, location and dimensions of
the Work, generally including plans, elevations, sections, details, schedules and diagrams.
1.1.6 THE SPECIFICATIONS
The Specifications are that portion of the Contract Documents consisting of the written requirements for materials, equipment,
systems, standards and workmanship for the Work, and performance of related services.
1.1.7 THE PROJECT MANUAL
The Project Manual is a volume assembled for the Work which may include the bidding requirements, sample forms, Conditions
of the Contract and Specifications.
1.2 CORRELATION AND INTENT OF THE CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
1.2.1 The intent of the Contract Documents is to include all items necessary for the proper execution and completion of the
Work by the Contractor. The Contract Documents are complementary, and what is required by one shall be as binding as if
required by all; performance by the Contractor shall be required only to the extent consistent with the Contract Documents and
reasonably inferable from them as being necessary to produce the indicated results.
1.2.2 Organization of the Specifications into divisions, sections and articles, and arrangement of Drawings shall not control the
Contractor in dividing the Work among Subcontractors or in establishing the extent of Work to be performed by any trade.
1.2.3 Unless otherwise stated in the Contract Documents, words which have well -known technical or construction industry
meanings are used in the Contract Documents in accordance with such recognized meanings.
1.3 CAPITALIZATION
AIA DOCUMENT A201- GENERAL CONDITIONS OF THE CONTRACT FOR CONSTRUCTION - 1997 EDITION - AIA - COPYRIGHT 1997 - THE

1.3.1 Terms capitalized in these General Conditions include those which are (1) specifically defined, (2) the titles of numbered
articles and identified references to Paragraphs, Subparagraphs and Clauses in the document or (3) the titles of other documents
published by the American Institute of Architects.
1.4 INTERPRETATION
1.4.1 In the interest of brevity the Contract Documents frequently omit modifying words such as "all" and "any" and articles
such as "the" and "an," but the fact that a modifier or an article is absent from one statement and appears in another is not
intended to affect the interpretation of either statement.
1.5 EXECUTION OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
1.5.1 The Contract Documents shall be signed by the Owner and Contractor. If either the Owner or Contractor or both do not
sign all the Contract Documents, the Architect shall identify such unsigned Documents upon request.
1.5.2 Execution of the Contract by the Contractor is a representation that the Contractor has visited the site, become generally
familiar with local conditions under which the Work is to be performed and correlated personal observations with requirements of
the Contract Documents.
1.6 OWNERSHIP AND USE OF DRAWINGS, SPECIFICATIONS AND OTHER INSTRUMENTS OF SERVICE
1.6.1 The Drawings, Specifications and other documents, including those in electronic form, prepared by the Architect and the
Architect's consultants are Instruments of Service through which the Work to be executed by the Contractor is described. The
Contractor may retain one record set. Neither the Contractor nor any Subcontractor, Sub - subcontractor or material or equipment
supplier shall own or claim a copyright in the Drawings, Specifications and other documents prepared by the Architect or the
Architect's consultants, and unless otherwise indicated the Architect and the Architect's consultants shall be deemed the authors of
them and will retain all common law, statutory and other reserved rights, in addition to the copyrights. All copies of Instruments
of Service, except the Contractor's record set, shall be returned or suitably accounted for to the Architect, on request, upon
completion of the Work. The Drawings, Specifications and other documents prepared by the Architect and the Architect's
consultants, and copies thereof furnished to the Contractor, are for use solely with respect to this Project. They are not to be used
by the Contractor or any Subcontractor, Sub - subcontractor or material or equipment supplier on other projects or for additions to
this Project outside the scope of the Work without the specific written consent of the Owner, Architect and the Architect's
consultants. The Contractor, Subcontractors, Sub - subcontractors and material or equipment suppliers are authorized to use and
reproduce applicable portions of the Drawings, Specifications and other documents prepared by the Architect and the Architect's
consultants appropriate to and for use in the execution of their Work under the Contract Documents. All copies made under this
authorization shall bear the statutory copyright notice, if any, shown on the Drawings, Specifications and other documents
prepared by the Architect and the Architect's consultants. Submittal or distribution to meet official regulatory requirements or for
other purposes in connection with this Project is not to be construed as publication in derogation of the Architect's or Architect's
consultants' copyrights or other reserved rights.
ARTICLE 2 OWNER
2.1 GENERAL
2.1.1 The Owner is the person or entity identified as such in the Agreement and is referred to throughout the Contract

4.2.2 The Architect, as a representative of the Owner, will visit the site at intervals appropriate to the stage of the Contractor's
operations (1) to become generally familiar with and to keep the Owner informed about the progress and quality of the portion of
the Work completed, (2) to endeavor to_guard the Owner against defects and deficiencies in the Work, and (3) to determine in
general if the Work is being performed in a manner indicating that the Work, when fully completed, will be in accordance with
the Contract Documents. However, the Architect will not be required to make exhaustive or continuous on -site inspections to
check the quality or quantity of the Work. The Architect will neither have control over or charge of, nor be responsible for, the
construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures, or for the safety precautions and programs in connection with
the Work, since these are solely the Contractor's rights and responsibilities under the Contract Documents, except as provided in
Subparagraph 3.3.1.

accordance with Subparagraphs 13.5.2 and 13.5.3, whether or not such Work is fabricated, installed or completed. However,
neither this authority of the Architect nor a decision made in good faith either to exercise or not to exercise such authority shall

the Contract Documents. The Architect's review of the Contractor's submittals shall not relieve the Contractor of the obligations
under Paragraphs 3.3, 3.5 and 3.12. The Architect's review shall not constitute approval of safety precautions or, unless otherwise

4.2.11 The Architect will interpret and decide matters concerning performance under, and requirements of, the Contract
Documents on written request of either_ the Owner or Contractor. The Architect's response to such requests will be made in
writing within any time limits agreed upon or otherwise with reasonable promptness. If no agreement is made concerning the time
within which interpretations required of the Architect shall be furnished in compliance with this Paragraph 4 2, then delay shall
not be recognized on account of failure by the Architect to furnish such interpretations until 15 days after written request is made
for them.
4.2.12 Interpretations and decisions of the Architect will be consistent with the intent of and reasonably inferable from the
Contract Documents and will be in writing or in the form of drawings. When making such interpretations and initial decisions, the
Architect will endeavor to secure faithful performance by both Owner and Contractor, will not show partiality to either and will
not be liable for results of interpretations or decisions so rendered in good faith.
4.2.13 The Architect's decisions on matters relating to aesthetic effect will be final if consistent with the intent expressed in the
Contract Documents.
4.3 CLAIMS AND DISPUTES
4.3.1 Delmition. A Claim is a demand or assertion by one of the parties seeking, as a matter of right, adjustment or
interpretation of Contract terms, payment of money, extension of time or other relief with respect to the terms of the Contract.
The term "Claim" also includes other disputes and matters in question between the Owner and Contractor arising out of or
relating to the Contract. Claims must be initiated by written notice. The responsibility to substantiate Claims shall rest with the
party making the Claim.
4.3.2 Time Limits on Claims. Claims by either party must be initiated within 21 days after occurrence of the event giving rise
to such Claim or within 21 days after the claimant first recognizes the condition giving rise to the Claim, whichever is later.
Claims must be initiated by written notice to the Architect and the other party.
43.3 Continuing Contract Performance. Pending final resolution of a Claim except as otherwise agreed in writing or as
provided in Subparagraph 9.7.1 and Article 14, the Contractor shall proceed diligently with performance of the Contract and the
Owner shall continue to make payments in accordance with the Contract Documents.
4.3.4 Claims for Concealed or Unknown Conditions. If conditions are encountered at the site which are (1) subsurface or
otherwise concealed physical conditions which differ materially from those indicated in the Contract Documents or (2) unknown
physical conditions of an unusual nature, which differ materially from those ordinarily found to exist and generally recognized as
inherent in construction activities of the character provided for in the Contract Documents, then notice by the observing party
shall be given to the other party promptly before conditions are disturbed and in no event later than 21 days after first observance
of the conditions. The Architect will promptly investigate such conditions and, if they differ materially and cause an increase or
decrease in the Contractor's cost of, or time required for, performance of any part of the Work, will recommend an equitable
adjustment in the Contract Sum or Contract Time, or both. If the Architect determines that the conditions at the site are not
materially different from those indicated in the Contract Documents and that no change in the terms of the Contract is justified,
the Architect shall so notify the Owner and Contractor in writing, stating the reasons. Claims by either party in opposition to such
determination must be made within 21 days after the Architect has given notice of the decision. If the conditions encountered are
materially different, the Contract Sum and Contract Time shall be equitably adjusted, but if the Owner and Contractor cannot
agree on an adjustment in the Contract Sum or Contract Time, the adjustment shall be referred to the Architect for initial
determination, subject to further proceedings pursuant to Paragraph 4.4.
4.3.5 Claims for Additional Cost. If the Contractor wishes to make Claim for an increase in the Contract Sum, written notice
as provided herein shall be given before proceeding to execute the Work. Prior notice is not required for Claims relating to an
emergency endangering life or property arising under Paragraph 10.6.
4.3.6 If the Contractor believes additional cost is involved for reasons including but not limited to (1) a written interpretation
from the Architect, (2) an order by the Owner to stop the Work where the Contractor was not at fault, (3) a written order for a
minor change in the Work issued by the Architect, (4) failure of payment by the Owner, (5) termination of the Contract by the
Owner, (6) Owner's suspension or (7) other reasonable grounds, Claim shall be filed in accordance with this Paragraph 4.3.

4.3.7 Claims for Additional Time
4.3.7.1 If the Contractor wishes to make Claim for an increase in the Contract Time, written notice as provided herein shall be
given. The Contractor's Claim shall include an estimate of cost and of probable effect of delay on progress of the Work. In the
case of a continuing delay only one Claim is necessary.
4.3.7.2 If adverse weather conditions are the basis for a Claim for additional time, such Claim shall be documented by data
substantiatin that weather conditions were abnormal for the period of time, could not have been reasonably anticipated and had
an adverse effect on the scheduled construction.
4.3.8 Injury or Damage to Person or Property. If either party to the Contract suffers injury or damage to person or property
because of an act or omission of the other party, or of others for whose acts such party is Iegally responsible, written notice of
such injury or damage, whether or not insured, shall be given to the other party within a reasonable time not exceeding 21 days
after discovery. The notice shall provide sufficient detail to enable the other party to investigate the matter.
4.3.9 If unit prices are stated in the Contract Documents or subsequently agreed upon, and if quantities originally
contemplated are materially changed in a proposed Change Order or Construction Change Directive so that application of such
unit prices to quantities of Work proposed will cause substantial inequity to the Owner or Contractor, the applicable unit prices
shall be equitably adjusted.
4.3.10 Claims for Consequential Damages. The Contractor and Owner waive Claims against each other for consequential
damages arising out of or relating to this Contract. This mutual waiver includes:
.1 damages incurred by the Owner for rental expenses, for losses of use, income, profit, financing, business and
reputation, and for loss of management or employee productivity or of the services of such persons; and
.2 damages incurred by the Contractor for principal office expenses including the compensation of personnel stationed
there, for losses of financing, business and reputation, and for loss 'of profit except anticipated profit arising directly
from the Work.
This mutual waiver is applicable, without limitation, to all consequential damages due to either party's termination in accordance
with Article 14. Nothing contained in this Subparagraph 4.3.10 shall be deemed to preclude an award of liquidated direct
damages, when applicable, in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents.
4.4 RESOLUTION OF CLAIMS AND DISPUTES
4.4.1 Decision of Architect. Claims, including those alleging an error or omission by the Architect but excluding those arising
under Paragraphs 10.3 through 10.5, shall be referred initially to the Architect for decision. An initial decision by the Architect
shall be required as a condition precedent to mediation, arbitration or litigation of all Claims between the Contractor and Owner
arising prior to the date final payment is due, unless 30 days have passed after the Claim has been referred to the Architect with
no decision having been rendered by the Architect. The Architect will not decide disputes between the Contractor and persons or
entities other than the Owner.
4.4.2 The Architect will review Claims and within ten days of the receipt of the Claim take one or more of the following
actions: (1) request additional supporting data from the claimant or a response with supporting data from the other party, (2)
reject the Claim in whole or in part, (3) approve the Claim, (4) suggest a compromise, or (5) advise the parties that the Architect
is unable to resolve the Claim if the Architect lacks sufficient information to evaluate the merits of the Claim or if the Architect
concludes that, in the Architect's sole discretion, it would be inappropriate for the Architect to resolve the Claim.
4.4.3 In evaluating Claims, the Architect may, but shall not be obligated to, consult with or seek information from either party
or from persons with special knowledge or expertise who may assist the Architect in rendering a decision. The Architect may
request the Owner to authorize retention of such persons at the Owner's expense.
4.4.4 If the Architect requests a party to provide a response to a Claim or to furnish additional supporting data, such party shall
respond, within ten days after receipt of such request, and shall either provide a response on the requested supporting data, advise

the Architect when the response or supporting data will be furnished or advise the Architect that no supporting data will be
furnished. Upon receipt of the response or supporting data, if any, the Architect will either reject or approve the Claim in whole
or in part.
4.4.5 The Architect will approve or reject Claims by written decision, which shall state the reasons therefor and which shall
notify the parties of any change in the Contract Sum or Contract Time or both. The approval or rejection of a Claim by the
Architect shall be final and binding on the parties but subject to mediation and arbitration.
4.4.6 When a written decision of the Architect states that (1) the decision is final but subject to mediation and arbitration and
(2) a demand for arbitration of a Claim covered by such decision must be made within 30 days after the date on which the party
making the demand receives the final written decision, then failure to demand arbitration within said 30 days' period shall result in
the Architect's decision becoming final and binding upon the Owner and Contractor. If the Architect renders a decision after
arbitration proceedings have been initiated, such decision may be entered as evidence, but shall not supersede arbitration
proceedings unless the decision is acceptable to all parties concerned.
4.4.7 Upon receipt of a Claim against the Contractor or at any time thereafter, the Architect or the Owner may, but is not
obligated to, notify the surety, if any, of the nature and amount of the Claim. If the Claim relates to a possibility of a Contractor's
default, the Architect or the Owner may, but is not obligated to, notify the surety and request the surety's assistance in resolving
the controversy.
4.4.8 If a Claim relates to or is the subject of a mechanic'slien, the party asserting such Claim may proceed in accordance with
applicable law to comply with the lien notice or filing deadlines prior to resolution of the Claim by the Architect, by mediation or
by arbitration.
4.5 MEDIATION
4.5.1 Any Claim arising out of or related to the Contract, except Claims relating to aesthetic effect and except those waived as
provided for in Subparagraphs 4.3.10, 9.10.4 and 9.10.5 shall, after initial decision by the Architect or 30 days after submission
of the Claim to the Architect, be subject to mediation as a condition precedent to arbitration or the institution of legal or equitable
proceedings by either party.
4.5.2 The parties shall endeavor to resolve their Claims by mediation which, unless the parties mutually agree otherwise, shall
be in accordance with the Construction Industry Mediation Rules of the American Arbitration Association currently in effect.
Request for mediation shall be filed in writing with the other party to the Contract and with the American Arbitration Association.
The request may be made concurrently with the filing of a demand for arbitration but, in such event, mediation shall proceed in
advance of arbitration or legal or equitable proceedings, which shall be stayed pending mediation for a period of 60 days from the
date of filing, unless stayed for a longer period by agreement of the parties or court order.
4.5.3 The parties shall share the mediator's fee and any filing fees equally. The mediation shall be held in the place where the
Project is located, unless another location is mutually agreed upon. Agreements reached in mediation shall be enforceable as
settlement agreements in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
4.6 ARBITRATION
4.6.1 Any Claim arising out of or related to the Contract, except Claims relating to aesthetic effect and except those waived as
provided for in Subparagraphs 4.3.10, 9.10.4 and 9.10.5, shall, after decision by the Architect or 30 days after submission of the
Claim to the Architect, be subject to arbitration. Prior to arbitration, the parties shall endeavor to resolve disputes by mediation in
accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 4.5.
4.6.2 Claims not resolved by mediation shall be decided by arbitration which, unless the parties mutually agree otherwise, shall
be in accordance with the Construction Industry Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association currently in effect.

or law whose presence is required if complete relief is to be accorded in arbitration. No person or entity other than the Owner,
Contractor or a separate contractor as described in Article 6 shall be included as an original third party or additional third party to
an arbitration whose interest or responsibility is insubstantial. Consent to arbitration involving an additional person or entity shall
not constitute consent to arbitration of a Claim not described therein or with a person or entity not named or described therein.
The foregoing agreement to arbitrate and other agreements to arbitrate with an additional person or entity duly consented to by
parties to the Agreement shall be specifically enforceable under applicable law in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

and operations with theirs as required by the Contract Documents.
6.2.2 If part of the Contractor's Work depends for proper execution or results upon construction or operations by the Owner or
a separate contractor, the Contractor shall, prior to proceeding with that portion of the Work, promptly report to the Architect
apparent discrepancies or defects in such other construction that would render it unsuitable for such proper execution and results.

partially completed construction is fit and proper to receive the Contractor's Work, except as to defects not then reasonably
discoverable.
6.2.3 The Owner shall be reimbursed by the Contractor for costs incurred by the Owner which are payable to a separate

7.3.1 A Construction Change Directive is a written order prepared by the Architect and signed by the Owner and Architect,
directing a change in the Work prior to agreement on adjustment, if any, in the Contract Sum or Contract Time, or both. The
Owner may by Construction Change Directive, without invalidating the Contract, order changes in the Work within the general
scope of the Contract consisting of additions, deletions or other revisions, the Contract Sum and Contract Time being adjusted
accordingly.
7.3.2 A Construction Change Directive shall be used in the absence of total agreement on the terms of a Change Order.
7.3.3 If the Construction Change Directive provides for an adjustment to the Contract Sum, the adjustment shall be based on
one of the following methods:
.1 mutual acceptance of a lump sum properly itemized and supported by sufficient substantiating data to permit
evaluation;
.2 unit prices stated in the Contract Documents or subsequently agreed upon;
.3 cost to be determined in a manner agreed upon by the parties and a mutually acceptable fixed or percentage fee; or
.4 as provided in Subparagraph 7.3.6.
7.3.4 Upon receipt of a Construction Change Directive, the Contractor shall promptly proceed with the change in the Work
involved and advise the Architect of the Contractor's agreement or disagreement with the method, if any, provided in the
Construction Chan Directive for determining the proposed adjustment in the Contract Sum or Contract Time.
7.3.5 A Construction Change Directive signed by the Contractor indicates the agreement of the Contractor therewith, including
adjustment in Contract Sum and Contract Time or the method for determining them. Such agreement shall be effective
immediately and shall be recorded as a Change Order.
7.3.6 If the Contractor does not respond promptly or disagrees with the method for adjustment in the Contract Sum, the
method and the adjustment shall be determined by the Architect on the basis of reasonable expenditures and savings of those
performing the Work attributable to the change, including, in case of an increase in the Contract Sum, a reasonable allowance for
overhead and profit. In such case, and also under Clause 7.3.3.3, the Contractor shall keep and present, in such form as the
Architect may prescribe, an itemized accounting together with appropriate supporting data. Unless otherwise provided in the
Contract Documents, costs for the purposes of this Subparagraph 7.3.6 shall be limited to the following:
.1 costs of labor, including social security, old age and unemployment insurance, fringe benefits required by agreement
or custom, and workers' compensation insurance;
.2 costs of materials, supplies and equipment, including cost of transportation, whether incorporated or consumed;
.3 rental costs of machinery and equipment, exclusive of hand tools, whether rented from the Contractor or others;
.4 costs of premiums for all bonds and insurance, permit fees, and sales, use or similar taxes related to the Work; and
.5 additional costs of supervision and field office personnel directly attributable to the change.
7.3.7 The amount of credit to be allowed by the Contractor to the Owner for a deletion or change which results in a net
decrease in the Contract Sum shall be actual net cost as confirmed by the Architect. When both additions and credits covering
related Work or substitutions are involved in a change, the allowance for overhead and profit shall be figured on the basis of net
increase, if any, with respect to that change.

7.3.8 Pendin final determination of the total cost of a Construction Change Directive to the Owner, amounts not in dispute for
such changes in the Work shall be included in Applications for Payment accompanied by a Change Order indicating the parties'
agreement with part or all of such costs. For any portion of such cost that remains in dispute, the Architect will make an interim
determination for purposes of monthly certification for payment for those costs. That determination of cost shall adjust the
Contract Sum on the same basis as a Change Order, subject to the right of either party to disagree and assert a claim in
accordance with Article 4.
7.3.9 When the Owner and Contractor agree with the determination made by the Architect concerning the adjustments in the
Contract Sum and Contract Time, or otherwise reach agreement upon the adjustments, such agreement shall be effective
immediately and shall be recorded by preparation and execution of an appropriate Change Order.
7.4 MINOR CHANGES IN THE WORK
7.4.1 The Architect will have authority to order minor changes in the Work not involving adjustment in the Contract Sum or
extension of the Contract Time and not inconsistent with the intent of the Contract Documents. Such changes shall be effected by
written order and shall be binding on the Owner and Contractor. The Contractor shall carry out such written orders promptly.
ARTICLE 8 TIME
8.1 DEFINITIONS
8.1.1 Unless otherwise provided, Contract Time is the period of time, including authorized adjustments, allotted in the
Contract Documents for Substantial Completion of the Work.
8.1.2 The date of commencement of the Work is the date established in the Agreement.
8.1.3 The date of Substantial Completion is the date certified by the Architect in accordance with Paragraph 9.8.
8.1.4 The term "day" as used in the Contract Documents shall mean calendar day unless otherwise specifically defined.
8.2 PROGRESS AND COMPLETION
8.2.1 Time limits stated in the Contract Documents are of the essence of the Contract. By executing the Agreement the
Contractor confirms that the Contract Time is a reasonable period for performing the Work.
8.2.2 The Contractor shall not knowingly, except by agreement or instruction of the Owner in writing, prematurely commence
operations on the site or elsewhere prior to the effective date of insurance required by Article 11 to be furnished by the Contractor
and Owner. The date of commencement of the Work shall not be changed by the effective date of such insurance. Unless the date
of commencement is established by the Contract Documents or a notice to proceed given by the Owner, the Contractor shall
notify the Owner in writing not less than five days or other agreed period before commencing the Work to permit the timely filing
of mortgages, mechanic's liens and other security interests.
8.2.3 The Contractor shall proceed expeditiously with adequate forces and shall achieve Substantial Completion within the
Contract Time.
8.3 DELAYS AND EXTENSIONS OF TIME
8.3.1 If the Contractor is delayed at any time in the commencement or progress of the Work by an act or neglect of the Owner
or Architect, or of an employee of either, or of a separate contractor employed by the Owner, or by changes ordered in the Work,
or by labor disputes, fire, unusual delay in deliveries, unavoidable casualties or other causes beyond the Contractor's control, or
by delay authorized by the Owner pending mediation and arbitration, or by other causes which the Architect determines may
justify delay, then the Contract Time shall be extended by Change Order for such reasonable time as the Architect may determine.

8.3.3 This Paragraph 8.3 does not preclude recovery of damages for delay by either party under other provisions of the
Contract Documents.
ARTICLE 9 PAYMENTS AND COMPLETION
9.1 CONTRACT SUM
9.1.1 The Contract Sum is stated in the Agreement and, including authorized adjustments, is the total amount payable by the
Owner to the Contractor for performance of the Work under the Contract Documents.
9.2 SCHEDULE OF VALUES
9.2.1 Before the first Application for Payment, the Contractor shall submit to the Architect a schedule of values allocated to
various portions of the Work, prepared in such form and supported by such data to substantiate its accuracy as the Architect may
require. This schedule, unless objected to by the Architect, shall be used as a basis for reviewing the Contractor's Applications for
Payment.
9.3 APPLICATIONS FOR PAYMENT
9.3.1 At least ten days before the date established for each progress payment, the Contractor shall submit to the Architect an
itemized Application for Payment for operations completed in accordance with the schedule of values. Such application shall be
notarized, if required, and supported by such data substantiating the Contractor's right to payment as the Owner or Architect may
require, such as copies of requisitions from Subcontractors and material suppliers, and reflecting retainage if provided for in the
Contract Documents.
9.3.1.1 As provided in Subparagraph 7.3.8, such applications may include requests for payment on account of changes in the
Work which have been properly authorized by Construction Change Directives, or by interim determinations of the Architect, but
not yet included in Change Orders.
9.3.1.2 Such applications may not include requests for payment for portions of the Work for which the Contractor does not
intend to pay to a Subcontractor or material supplier, unless such Work has been performed by others whom the Contractor
intends to pay.
9.3.2 Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, payments shall be made on account of materials and equipment
delivered and suitably stored at the site for subsequent incorporation in the Work. If approved in advance by the Owner, payment
may similarly be made for materials and equipment suitably stored off the site at a location agreed upon in writing. Payment for
materials and equipment stored on or off the site shall be conditioned upon compliance by the Contractor with procedures
satisfactory to the Owner to establish the Owner's title to such materials and equipment or otherwise protect the Owner's interest,
and shall include the costs of applicable insurance, storage and transportation to the site for such materials and equipment stored
off the site.
9.3.3 The Contractor warrants that title to all Work covered by an Application for Payment will pass to the Owner no later
than the time of payment. The Contractor further warrants that upon submittal of an Application for Payment all Work for which
Certificates for Payment have been previously issued and payments received from the Owner shall, to the best of the Contractor's
knowledge, information and belief, be free and clear of liens, claims, security interests or encumbrances in favor of the
Contractor, Subcontractors, material suppliers, or other persons or entities making a claim by reason of having provided labor,
materials and equipment relating to the Work.
9.4 CERTIFICATES FOR PAYMENT
9.4.1 The Architect will, within seven days after receipt of the Contractor's Application for Payment, either issue to the Owner
a Certificate for Payment, with a copy to the Contractor, for such amount as the Architect determines is properly due, or notify the
Contractor and Owner in writing of the Architect's reasons for withholding certification in whole or in part as provided in
Subparagraph 9.5.1.
9.4.2 The issuance of a Certificate for Payment will constitute a representation by the Architect to the Owner, based on the
Architect's evaluation of the Work and the data comprising the Application for Payment, that the Work has progressed to the
point indicated and that, to the best of the Architect's knowledge, information and belief, the quality of the Work is in accordance

with the Contract Documents. The foregoing representations are subject to an evaluation of the Work for conformance with the
Contract Documents upon Substantial Completion, to results of subsequent tests and inspections, to correction of minor
deviations from the Contract Documents prior to completion and to specific qualifications expressed by the Architect. The
issuance of a Certificate for Payment will further constitute a representation that the Contractor is entitled to payment in the
amount certified. However, the issuance of a Certificate for Payment will not be a representation that the Architect has (1) made
exhaustive or continuous on -site inspections to check the quality or quantity of the Work, (2) reviewed construction means,
methods, techniques, sequences or procedures, (3) reviewed copies of requisitions received from Subcontractors and material
suppliers and other data requested by the Owner to substantiate the Contractor's right to payment, or (4) made examination to
ascertain how or for what purpose the Contractor has used money previously paid on account of the Contract Sum.
9.5 DECISIONS TO WITHHOLD CERTIFICATION
9.5.1 The Architect may withhold a Certificate for Payment in whole or in part, to the extent reasonably necessary to protect
the Owner, if in the Architect's opinion the representations to the Owner required by Subparagraph 9.4.2 cannot be made. If the
Architect is unable to certify payment in the amount of the Application, the Architect will notify the Contractor and Owner as
provided in Subparagraph 9.4.1. If the Contractor and Architect cannot agree on a revised amount, the Architect will promptly
issue a Certificate for Payment for the amount for which the Architect is able to make such representations to the Owner. The
Architect may also withhold a Certificate for Payment or, because of subsequently discovered evidence, may nullify the whole or
a part of a Certificate for Payment previously issued, to such extent as may be necessary in the Architect's opinion to protect the
Owner from loss for which the Contractor is responsible, including loss resulting from acts and omissions described in
Subparagraph 3.3.2, because of:
.1 defective Work not remedied;
.2 third party claims filed or reasonable evidence indicating probable filing of such claims unless security acceptable to
the Owner is provided by the Contractor;
.3 failure of the Contractor to make payments properly to Subcontractors or for labor, materials or equipment;
.4 reasonable evidence that the Work cannot be completed for the unpaid balance of the Contract Sum;
.5 damage to the Owner or another contractor;
.6 reasonable evidence that the Work will not be completed within the Contract Time, and that the unpaid balance
would not be adequate to cover actual or liquidated damages for the anticipated delay; or
.7 persistent failure to carry out the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
9.5.2 When the above reasons for withholding certification are removed, certification will be made for amounts previously
withheld.
9.6 PROGRESS PAYMENTS
9.6.1 After the Architect has issued a Certificate for Payment, the Owner shall make payment in the manner and within the
time provided in the Contract Documents, and shall so notify the Architect.
9.6.2 The Contractor shall promptly pay each Subcontractor, upon receipt of payment from the Owner, out of the amount paid
to the Contractor on account of such Subcontractor's portion of the Work, the amount to which said Subcontractor is entitled,
reflecting percentages actually retained from payments to the Contractor on account of such Subcontractor's portion of the Work.
The Contractor shall, by appropriate agreement with each Subcontractor, require each Subcontractor to make payments to
Sub - subcontractors in a similar manner.
9.6.3 The Architect will, on request, furnish to a Subcontractor, if practicable, information regarding percentages of
completion or amounts applied for by the Contractor and action taken thereon by the Architect and Owner on account of portions
of the Work done by such Subcontractor.

9.6.4 Neither the Owner nor Architect shall have an obligation to pay or to see to the payment of money to a Subcontractor
except as may otherwise be required by law.
9.6.5 Payment to material suppliers shall be treated in a manner similar to that provided in Subparagraphs 9.6.2, 9.6.3 and
9.6.4.
9.6.6 A Certificate for Payment, a progress payment, or partial or entire use or occupancy of the Project by the Owner shall not
constitute acceptance of Work not in accordance with the Contract Documents.
9.6.7 Unless the Contractor provides the Owner with a payment bond in the full penal sum of the Contract Sum, payments
received by the Contractor for Work properly performed by Subcontractors and suppliers shall be held by the Contractor for those
Subcontractors or suppliers who performed Work or furnished materials, or both, under contract with the Contractor for which
payment was made by the Owner. Nothing contained herein shall require money to be placed in a separate account and not
commingled with money of the Contractor, shall create any fiduciary liability or tort liability on the part of the Contractor for
breach of trust or shall entitle any person or entity to an award of punitive damages against the Contractor for breach of the
requirements of this provision.
9.7 FAILURE OF PAYMENT
9.7.1 If the Architect does not issue a Certificate for Payment, through no fault of the Contractor, within seven days after
receipt of the Contractor's Application for Payment, or if the Owner does not pay the Contractor within seven days after the date
established in the Contract Documents the amount certified by the Architect or awarded by arbitration, then the Contractor may,
upon seven additional days' written notice to the Owner and Architect, stop the Work until payment of the amount owing has been
received. The Contract Time shall be extended appropriately and the Contract Sum shall be increased by the amount of the
Contractor's reasonable costs of shut -down, delay and start-up, plus interest as provided for in the Contract Documents.
9.8 SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION
9.8.1 Substantial Completion is the stage in the progress of the Work when the Work or designated portion thereof is
sufficiently complete in accordance with the Contract Documents so that the Owner can occupy or utilize the Work for its
intended use.
9.8.2 When the Contractor considers that the Work, or a portion thereof which the Owner agrees to accept separately, is
substantially complete, the Contractor shall prepare and submit to the Architect a comprehensive list of items to be completed or
corrected prior to final payment. Failure to include an item on such list does not alter the responsibility of the Contractor to
complete all Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
9.8.3 Upon receipt of the Contractor's list, the Architect will make an inspection to determine whether the Work or designated
portion thereof is substantially complete. If the Architect's inspection discloses any item, whether or not included on the
Contractor's list, which is not sufficiently complete in accordance with the Contract Documents so that the Owner can occupy or
utilize the Work or designated portion thereof for its intended use, the Contractor shall, before issuance of the Certificate of
Substantial Completion, complete or correct such item upon notification by the Architect. In such case, the Contractor shall then
submit a request for another inspection by the Architect to determine Substantial Completion.
9.8.4 When the Work or designated portion thereof is substantially complete, the Architect will prepare a Certificate of
Substantial Completion which shall establish the date of Substantial Completion, shall establish responsibilities of the Owner and
Contractor for security, maintenance, heat, utilities, damage to the Work and insurance, and shall fix the time within which the
Contractor shall finish all items on the list accompanying the Certificate. Warranties required by the Contract Documents shall
commence on the date of Substantial Completion of the Work or designated portion thereof unless otherwise provided in the
Certificate of Substantial Completion.
9.8.5 The Certificate of Substantial Completion shall be submitted to the Owner and Contractor for their written acceptance of
responsibilities assigned to them in such Certificate. Upon such acceptance and consent of surety, if any, the Owner shall make
payment of retainage applying to such Work or designated portion thereof. Such payment shall be adjusted for Work that is
incomplete or not in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents.

9.9 PARTIAL OCCUPANCY OR USE
9.9.1 The Owner may occupy or use any completed or partially completed portion of the Work at any stage when such portion
is designated by separate agreement with the Contractor, provided such occupancy or use is consented to by the insurer as
required under Clause 11.4.1.5 and authorized by public authorities having jurisdiction over the Work. Such partial occupancy or
use may commence whether or not the portion is substantially complete, provided the Owner and Contractor have accepted in
writing the responsibilities assigned to each of them for payments, retainage, if any, security, maintenance, heat, utilities, damage
to the Work and insurance, and have agreed in writing concerning the period for correction of the Work and commencement of
warranties required by the Contract Documents. When the Contractor considers a portion substantially complete, the Contractor
shall prepare and submit a list to the Architect as provided under Subparagraph 9.8.2. Consent of the Contractor to partial
occupancy or use shall not be unreasonably withheld. The stage of the progress of the Work shall be determined by written
agreement between the Owner and Contractor or, if no agreement is reached, by decision of the Architect.
9.9.2 Immediately prior to such partial occupancy or use, the Owner, Contractor and Architect shall jointly inspect the area to
be occupied or portion of the Work to be used in order to determine and record the condition of the Work.
9.9.3 Unless otherwise agreed upon, partial occupancy or use of a portion or portions of the Work shall not constitute
acceptance of Work not complying with the requirements of the Contract Documents.
9.10 FINAL COMPLETION AND FINAL PAYMENT
9.10.1 Upon receipt of written notice that the Work is ready for final inspection and acceptance and upon receipt of a final
Application for Payment, the Architect will promptly make such inspection and, when the Architect finds the Work acceptable
under the Contract Documents and the Contract fully performed, the Architect will promptly issue a final Certificate for Payment
stating that to the best of the Architect's knowledge, information and belief, and on the basis of the Architect's on -site visits and
inspections, the Work has been completed in accordance with terms and conditions of the Contract Documents and that the entire
balance found to be due the Contractor and noted in the final Certificate is due and payable. The Architect's final Certificate for
Payment will constitute a further representation that conditions listed in Subparagraph 9.10.2 as precedent to the Contractor's
being entitled to final payment have been fulfilled.
9.10.2 Neither final payment nor any remaining retained percentage shall become due until the Contractor submits to the
Architect (1) an affidavit that payrolls, bills for materials and equipment, and other indebtedness connected with the Work for
which the Owner or the Owner's property might be responsible or encumbered (less amounts withheld by Owner) have been paid
or otherwise satisfied, (2) a certificate evidencing that insurance required by the Contract Documents to remain in force after final
payment is currently in effect and will not be canceled or allowed to expire until at least 30 days' prior written notice has been
given to the Owner, (3) a written statement that the Contractor knows of no substantial reason that the insurance will not be
renewable to cover the period required by the Contract Documents, (4) consent of surety, if any, to final payment and (5), if
required by the Owner, other data establishing payment or satisfaction of obligations, such as receipts, releases and waivers of
liens, claims, security interests or encumbrances arising out of the Contract, to the extent and in such form as may be designated
by the Owner. If a Subcontractor refuses to furnish a release or waiver required by the Owner, the Contractor may furnish a bond
satisfactory to the Owner to indemnify the Owner against such lien. If such lien remains unsatisfied after payments are made, the
Contractor shall refund to the Owner all money that the Owner may be compelled to pay in discharging such lien, including all
costs and reasonable attorneys' fees.
9.10.3 If, after Substantial Completion of the Work, final completion thereof is materially delayed through no fault of the
Contractor or by issuance of Change Orders affecting final completion, and the Architect so confirms, the Owner shall, upon
application by the Contractor and certification by the Architect, and without terminating the Contract, make payment of the
balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed and accepted. If the remaining balance for Work not fully completed or
corrected is less than retainage stipulated in the Contract Documents, and if bonds have been furnished, the written consent of
surety to payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed and accepted shall be submitted by the
Contractor to the Architect prior to certification of such payment. Such payment shall be made under terms and conditions
governing final payment, except that it shall not constitute a waiver of claims.
9.10.4 The making of final payment shall constitute a waiver of Claims by the Owner except those arising from:
.1 liens, Claims, security interests or encumbrances arising out of the Contract and unsettled;

.2 failure of the Work to comply with the requirements of the Contract Documents; or
.3 terms of special warranties required by the Contract Documents.
9.10.5 Acceptance of final payment by the Contractor, a Subcontractor or material supplier shall constitute a waiver of claims
by that payee except those previously made in writing and identified by that payee as unsettled at the time of final Application for
Payment.

Sub - subcontractors in the Work, and by appropriate Change Order the cost thereof shall be charged to the Owner. If the

ire or other hazards
however caused.
11.4.4 If the Contractor requests in writing that insurance for risks other than those described herein or other special causes of
loss be included in the property insurance policy, the Owner shall, if possible, include such insurance, and the cost thereof shall
be charged to the Contractor by appropriate Change Order.

by property insurance under policies separate from those insuring the Project, or if after final payment property insurance is to be
provided on the completed Project through a policy or policies other than those insuring the Project during the construction
period, the Owner shall waive all rights in accordance with the terms of Subparagraph 11.4.7 for damages caused by fire or other
causes of loss covered by this separate property insurance. All separate policies shall provide this waiver of subrogation by
endorsement or otherwise.

subcontractors, sub - subcontractors, agents and employees, each of the other, and (2) the Architect, Architect's consultants,

contractors described in Article 6, if any, and the subcontractors, sub - subcontractors, agents and employees of any of them, by
appropriate agreements, written where legally required for validity, similar waivers each in favor of other parties enumerated

otherwise, did not pay the insurance premium directly or indirectly, and whether or not the person or entity had an insurable
interest in the property damaged.
11.4.8 A loss insured under Owner's property insurance shall be adjusted by the Owner as fiduciary and made payable to the

agreement as the parties in interest may reach, or in accordance with an arbitration award in which case the procedure shall be as
provided in Paragraph 4.6. If after such loss no other special agreement is made and unless the Owner terminates the Contract for
convenience, replacement of damaged property shall be performed by the Contractor after notification of a Change in the Work in

object in writing within five days after occurrence of loss to the Owner's exercise of this power; if such objection is made, the
dispute shall be resolved as provided in Paragraphs 4.5 and 4.6. The Owner as fiduciary shall, in the case of arbitration, make

the condition was caused by the Owner or a separate contractor in which event the Owner shall be responsible for payment of
such costs.
12.2 CORRECTION OF WORK
12.2.1 BEFORE OR AFTER SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION
12.2.1.1 The Contractor shall promptly correct Work rejected by the Architect or failing to conform to the requirements of the
Contract Documents, whether discovered before or after Substantial Completion and whether or not fabricated, installed or
completed. Costs of correcting such rejected Work, including additional testing and inspections and compensation for the
Architect's services and expenses made necessary thereby, shall be at the Contractor's expense.
12.2.2 AFTER SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION
12.2.2.1 In addition to the Contractor's obligations under Paragraph 3.5, if, within one year after the date of Substantial
Completion of the Work or designated portion thereof or after the date for commencement of warranties established under
Subparagraph 9.9.1, or by terms of an applicable special warranty required by the Contract Documents, any of the Work is found
to be not in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall correct it promptly after receipt of
written notice from the Owner to do so unless the Owner has previously given the Contractor a written acceptance of such
condition. The Owner shall give such notice promptly after discovery of the condition. During the one -year period for correction
of Work, if the Owner fails to notify the Contractor and give the Contractor an opportunity to make the correction, the Owner
waives the rights to require correction by the Contractor and to make a claim for breach of warranty. If the Contractor fails to
correct nonconforming Work within a reasonable time during that period after receipt of notice from the Owner or Architect, the
Owner may correct it in accordance with Paragraph 2.4.
12.2.2.2 The one -year period for correction of Work shall be extended with respect to portions of Work first performed after
Substantial Completion by the period of time between Substantial Completion and the actual performance of the Work.

completed, of the Owner or separate contractors caused by the Contractor's correction or removal of Work which is not in
accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents.

obligations which the Contractor might have under the'Contract Documents. Establishment of the one -year period for correction
of Work as described in Subparagraph 12.2.2 relates only to the specific obligation of the Contractor to correct the Work, and has
no relationship to the time within which the obligation to comply with the Contract Documents may be sought to be enforced, nor
to the time within which proceedings may be commenced to establish the Contractor's liability with respect to the Contractor's
obligations other than specifically to correct the Work.
12.3 ACCEPTANCE OF NONCONFORMING WORK
12.3.1 If the Owner prefers to accept Work which is not in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents, the
Owner may do so instead of requiring its removal and correction, in which case the Contract Sum will be reduced as appropriate
and equitable. Such adjustment shall be effected whether or not final payment has been made.

CITY OF SHAKOPEE
Memorandum
TO: Mayor & City Council
Mark McNeill, City Administrator
FROM: Bruce Loney, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: Discussion of Sarazin Street and Valley View Road
DATE: October 2, 2001
INTRODUCTION:
This item is to consider the results on an informational meeting with property owners on
the Sarazin Street and Valley View Road Project and provide staff direction on how to
proceed with this project.
BACKGROUND:
On April 3, 2001 a public hearing was held on the Sarazin Street, from Mooers Avenue to
Valley View Road and Valley View Road, from Sarazin Street to the east plat line of
Pheasant Run 6 ffi Addition. Council directed staff to conduct a benefit appraisal analysis
on the assessments and this analysis was presented to Council on August 9, 2001. An
informational meeting was held on August 28, 2001 with the property owners to discuss
the results of the benefit appraisals.
From this meeting, the residents asked if they could write letters to City Council on their
position with the project and several of the residents have met and have submitted a letter
with their concerns. Also an individual letter was received from Jesse and Dawn Kahnke
and Betaseed, Inc. on this project. These letters are attached for Council review and
consideration.
This project is for the construction of City collectors, being Sarazin Street and Valley
View Road, with the sidewalk and trail and also to provide municipal utility services such
as sanitary sewer, watermain and storm sewer to this area. The property owners were
mailed the benefit appraisal analysis numbers for each of their properties. In the
informational meeting, this appraisal was discussed along with details of the project. At
this time, most of the property owners believe that the project is inevitable. They would
like to see the City consider either paying for more of the project costs or provide some
more favorable terms on assessments to allow them to develop their property and gain the
assessment benefit. The letter that is attached is a summary of the major points for the
residents concerns.
Staff would like to summarize the concerns as follows:
• Three of the parcels in the limited benefit appraisal analysis did not have the
benefit amount as the projected assessment total. These three parcels were ones
that in staff's opinion could not be subdivided further and thus the benefit gain
was not as great as others. These parcels are the O'Loughlin, Berg and Fonder
parcels.
• Many of the residents believe the City should extend the term of the assessment
from a 10 -year period to a 20 -year period and allow zero percent interest on their
assessment until either the property is sold or subdivided.
• Many of the owners felt that they should not have to hook up to City services until
their current systems fail or they sell or develop their property. In one such case,
the Kitty and Terry Hauer parcel, they have an extremely long length to serve
their household and would desire not to hook up until their land is developed.
• Some other parcels that could remain in green acres would still desire to have that
green acre status.
Staff has consulted with the City Attorney and attached is a memo to the City Council on
what is legal for deferments for assessments and how this deferment can be done if the
City Council allows one. Staff believes it is appropriate to discuss the results of the
informational meeting and the letter submitted to the City Council, and take some public
testimony in regard to this project and provide direction on how to proceed with this
proj ect.
The direction that we need from the City Council is: (1) whether they would like staff to
proceed with discussing these options with the property owners; (2) would interest be
charged on any deferrals; and (3) what events would trigger the deferred payments to
become due.
Council Member Sweeney previously raised a question as to whether the City could put
the question of whether to build this segment of Valley View Road to the voters. The
City Attorney advises us that state law prohibits municipalities from calling special
elections unless a state law specifically authorizes an election for that particular purpose.
There is no statutory authority for calling a special election on whether to construct a
street.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Discuss the information and requests from the property owners associated with
this project and provide staff direction on how to proceed with this project.
2. Table for additional information.
Staff recommends Alternative No. 1, to discuss the various letters that have been
submitted and look at the conditions that are being requested and provide direction on
whether or not to proceed with this improvement project.
ACTION REQUESTED:
Offer a motion providing staff direction on how to proceed with the Sarazin Street and
Valley View Road Project.

TO: Bruce Loney
FROM: Jim Thomson, City Attorney
DATE: September 27, 2001
RE: Special Assessments for Valley View Road Project
You have asked for advice with respect to the options that are available to the City Council with
respect to the assessments for the Valley View Road project. In particular, you have asked me to
address what options might be available to defer assessments on properties that are not yet ready
for development or where property owners are not interested in developing their properties.
In general, the City Council has the following four options with respect to deferral of special
assessments:
1. State law governs the deferral of payment of levied special assessments. These
statutory provisions apply when special assessments are levied and the property
owner requests that payment be deferred. The deferral mechanism that would
most likely be available in this situation would be the deferral for "unimproved
property." This deferral mechanism allows payment of the first installment to be
deferred until a designated future year, until the property is platted, or until
improvements are constructed on the property. The maximum deferral period is
30 years. The deferral may be based on terms, conditions, criteria and standards
established by the City Council. State law authorizes cities to establish an interest
rate for payments that are deferred or to forgive interest entirely during the
deferral period until December 31 of the year before the first installment is due.
2. Another option would be for the City Council to defer levying special assessments
on certain parcels until a future time. In contrast to option #1, the special
assessments would not be levied until a future date. Nothing in state law
specifically authorizes this procedure, but the City Council has the legislative
discretion to do so. The conditions under which the levying of special
assessments is deferred can be determined by the City Council. The only
significant advantage to a property owner to this option over option #1 is that it is
available even if the property cannot qualify for the statutory deferral for
"unimproved property."
3. In lieu of levying assessing on some of the parcels now, the City could agree with
the property owner that the amount of the special assessments would be paid as
"hook -up" fees at the time the property is connected to sanitary sewer and water.
The details of such a procedure would need to be worked out between the City
and the property owners. This option is not available for any portion of the
JJT- 203601v1
SH155 -23
project, such as the roadway improvements, where there is no "hook -up"
involved.
4. A fourth option exists with respect to the sanitary sewer, storm sewer and
watermain portions of the project. State law allows a municipality to later levy
additional assessments to reimburse itself if a portion of these project costs are
initially paid from ad valorem taxes, or from other city revenues or funds. The
additional assessments can be levied on properties that abutted the project but
were not initially assessed for the project. If a municipality intends to use this
process, it must so notify the property owners at the time of the initial assessment
hearing. This option is not widely used because it involves two assessment
hearings, which can complicate the assessment process.
Although care must be exercised to ensure that similarly situated property owners are treated
similarly, the City Council can "pick and choose" the options to suit the City's needs and the
needs of the individual property owners. For example, property owners who are planning to
develop their property immediately probably do not need any of these options. Property owners
who are not planning to develop their properties until some future time might be interested in
option #1. Property owners who say that they will never develop their properties might be
interested in option #3.
My recommendation is that we focus on options land 3 as much as possible. To the extent that
option #1 does not work for a particular parcel of land, we can look at the possibility of using
option #2. Option #4 is not a very practical or workable one.
The direction that we need from the City Council is: (1) whether they would like staff to proceed
with discussing these options with the property owners; (2) would interest be charged on any
deferrals; and (3) what events would trigger the deferred payments to become due.

determine the market value of special benefit to subject properties, resulting from a proposed

The scope of research and depth of analysis are not sufficient to be
considered a complete appraisal.
This appraisal is presented in a Summary reporting format, as y d scussons of he data and

In order to estimate the value of special benefit, we have estimated the market value of the
subject properties in both their before and after conditions. The difference between the
before and after values indicate the value of the special benefit resulting from a proposed
street improvement project.
The subjects consists of nine properties which are predominantly single family building sites
of one to six acres in size. In the before condition, the properties front a gravel road and are
served by private well and septic systems. In the after condition, Valley View Road will be a
bituminous surfaced roadway with concrete curbing and inground storm sewer. Municipal
services of sanitary sewer and water may also be installed. We have also valued the subject
properties in the after condition without municipal services being extended. It is generally
considered that the benefit of street improvements run to the land. As such, only the land
value has been estimated in both the before and after:`nnditions. We were unable to obtain
the condition of the private well and the sanitary seer each parcel. For this analysis we
have assumed that these existing systems on prove.. s are currently functional and
generally of an age similar to the age of the bufl ii g_impe ments on site.
This appraisal report includes multiple parcels-i'zi;�der one cover. The report format presents
the general data involving all parcels, the ritiarket i?i d the proposed project information in the

Re: Proposal By Valley View Road Property Owners
Dear Council Members:
SEP 2001
Betaseed, Inc. is aware of the proposal by the Valley View individual property owners asking for
more favorable terms related to proposed assessments resulting from the planned improvements
to Valley View Road.
Betaseed supports some form of equitable relief for the individual property owners who will be
financially impacted in a significant manner by the currently proposed assessments. Although
Betaseed is being affected by the developments which are driving the road /service
improvements, we recognize that this growth is inevitable, and we are appreciative of the City's
efforts to work with us on road planning issues so we can continue to operate at our Shakopee
location.
The proposed assessments will be a significant cost for Betaseed as well, but being a
commercial entity, Betaseed is willing to pay its assessment as currently proposed according to
the payment terms proposed by the City. Similarly, we believe the subdivision developers are
the most significant direct beneficiaries of the road improvements and that they can and should
expect to pay their proposed assessments according to the payment terms proposed by the
City.
We ask that you give consideration to the individual property owners' proposal for improved
terms related to payment of assessments.
Sincerely,
E! Joq Dahmer

Property Owners
Considerations To Be Granted Property Owners
After speaking with all of the named property owners, it became clear that there are some
separate and some common concerns and considerations.
Everyone sees the project as inevitable, but not really needed by us. Most see that there
will eventually be benefit to them, but they feel that the city also gains hugely from
property tax base as land develops. Therefore, most owners feel the city should shoulder a Iarge
part of the assessments.
Most owners also feel a need to ask for terms on assessments in order to ease the
hardship. These are:
0% interest for 20 years or Point of Sale.
Allow owners with more than one lot to pay a portion of the assessment as lots sell. (ex:
owner sells one of 5 lots and pays 20% of the assessment).
Owners do not to have to hook up to services until current systems fail, they sell, or when
they develop.
One or two owners expressed interest in staying in or enrolling in the Green Acres
program.
Most owners feel the "20 -year sunset clause" was needed, but that they would have the
assessment paid up long before then.

M r. Mayor and fellow city council members:
We know the city of Shakopee has enough tax revenue in reserve to cover the entire
cost of this project_ W e have all been paying taxes for numerous years. There are
also other ways to fund it such as having the developer pay the actual true percentage
of the true cost, or do a city wide tax bond. Since the current 9 residents along Valley
View Road are NOT the sole, or primary beneficiaries of paving the roadway. This
point was proven when on 10 -4 -94 City Council voted to reverse its original decision
and allowed the barricade at the intersection of Pheasant Run and Valley View to be
removed. This was in response from complaints from the residents of Pheasant Run
not having access. At that time it was decided opening the bar rcades was for the
benefit of the residents of Pheasant Run, along with school bus access, police, and fire
etc..., therefore the Cifiy of Shakopee has benefitl
With the above in mind would be willing to help fund the Valley Vlelr; Road project
under the following termns:
1. We would be willing to pay the stated $10,000.00 per property owner, over

Memorandum
TO: Mayor & City Council
Mark McNeill, City Administrator
FROM: Bruce Loney, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: Consider Ordinance No. 614
An Ordinance Pertaining to Vehicle Parking Restrictions
And Amending Section 9.50 of the City Code
DATE: October 2, 2001
INTRODUCTION:
Attached is Ordinance No. 614, an ordinance pertaining to vehicle parking restrictions
and amending Section 9.50 of the City Code, after direction from the City Council at the
September 18, 2001 City Council meeting.
BACKGROUND:
At the September 18, 2001 City Council meeting, the City Council considered several
alternatives in revising the ordinance that regulates parking during snow removal periods
in the City of Shakopee. After much discussion, the City Council directed staff to utilize
Alternative No. 5, with a combination of Alternative No. 2, so that there would be two
areas within the City of Shakopee one having calendar parking restrictions and the other
having no parking restrictions during the winter period of November 1 through March 31.
City staff and the City Attorney have worked together to revise Ordinance 9.50, which
accomplishes the Council direction. In this ordinance, the area defined that would allow
calendar parking is described as the area west of Marschall Road, north of 10 Avenue
and east of C.R. 69 to the Minnesota River. This area would be allowed to have calendar
parking based on an odd and even address and odd and even calendar days. This
ordinance provision means that on one side of the street during the winter months, in this
area, parking is allowed on one side of the street. Two exceptions in this area that
currently exists in the current ordinance is in the Central Business District and along 2nd
Avenue, from Sommerville Street and Naumkeag Street. Staff is recommending no
change in these regulations at this time.
In the other areas of City, outside of the area described previously, parking restrictions
between the period of November 1 and March 31 would be that no parking would be
allowed on City streets between 2:00 A.M. and 6:00 A.M. In addition to these parking
restrictions, during November 1 to March 31, a snow emergency which is defined as a
snowfall of 2" or more, the parking restrictions described in this revised ordinance would
still be in effect until the street or alley has been plowed.
It should be pointed out to City Council that this revised parking restriction has not been
publicized in the local newspaper, thus these changes that City Council has been
considering may not be widely known to the public. The Council can consider adopting
this ordinance at the October 2, 2001 meeting or delay this adoption until October 16,
2001 after a news article has be published on the proposed changes.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Adopt Ordinance No. 614, an ordinance pertaining to vehicle parking restrictions
and amending Section 9.50 of the City Code.
2. Delay the adoption of this ordinance to the October 16, 2001 Council meeting
until the public has had a chance to respond.
3. Table for additional information.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends Alternative No. 1, to adopt Ordinance No. 614 and publish this
ordinance so that the public can be informed of the new restrictions to this coming snow
season.
ACTION REQUESTED:
Offer Ordinance No. 614, An Ordinance Pertaining to Vehicle Parking Restrictions and
Amending Section 9.50 of the City Code and move its adoption.

ATE: October 2, 2001
This agenda item is intended to review the preliminary design for the C.R. 17 and C.R. 79
pedestrian bridges and also discuss aesthetic options, revised cost estimates, other
funding sources and review the schedule with the City Council.
On February 20, 2001, the City of Shakopee entered into a contract with WSB &
Associates to provide engineering services for the pedestrian bridge design over T.H 169
at C.R. 79 and C.R. 17. The City has received Federal funding for the construction of
these two pedestrian bridges as part of the TEA -21 funding program. At this particular
point of the project design a project memorandum needs to be submitted to Mn/DOT on
the proposed project. The Council had previously stated a desire to review the aesthetics
of the proposed pedestrian bridges. Don Sterna, of WSB & Associates, will be present
to discuss the basic option and aesthetic options for the pedestrian bridge design. In
addition, Mr. Sterna will review with the City Council the revised cost estimate of the
bridges based on cost estimates recently received funding source options for this
project and review the schedule with City Council.
The intent of this Council item is to review the status of the pedestrian bridge design,
with the revised cost estimate, and schedule and ask for Council input on the design and
any desire as to aesthetic options that they wish to see with this project.
1. Provide staff direction on the preliminary design for the pedestrian bridges over

Memorandum
TO: Mayor & City Council
Mark McNeill, City Administrator
FROM: Bruce Loney, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: Reconstruction of River District Sanitary Sewer
Along the Minnesota River
DATE: October 2, 2001
INTRODUCTION:
coNSeAT
Attached is Resolution No. 5588, a resolution ordering a feasibility study to be prepared
for the reconstruction of the River District sanitary sewer pipe along the Minnesota River
for Council consideration.
BACKGROUND:
This past spring the City of Shakopee experienced a large amount of infiltration/inflow
into its sanitary sewer pipe system known as the River District sanitary sewer along the
Minnesota River. This particular flooding event along the Minnesota River has occurred
every four years for the past eight years and the River District sanitary sewer pipe has
experienced infiltration with each flood occurrence.
Attached to this memo is a letter on waste water flow from the Metropolitan Council
dated June 21, 2001, informing the City of significant inflow /infiltration from the City of
Shakopee. The Metropolitan Council is requesting that the City analyze its problems
associated with excessive infiltration/inflow and what measures should be done to
remove it. The Engineering staff has calculated the amount of inflow into the sewer
system and this cost is estimated to be $135,00.00 for year 2001. The new rules from
FEMA are such that excessive inflow in major flood events is no longer a reimbursable
cost.
Staff's recommendation is to prepare a feasibility report to analyze the cost in
reconstructing the River District sanitary sewer pipe and its lateral lines connecting to it
for the purpose of reducing the infiltration/inflow of this system. Part of this study will
also analyze the sizing of this pipe that is currently installed and analyze whether or not
the pipe alignment should be relocated, for instance in the Huber Park area on where to
relocate the sanitary sewer to avoid conflicts with the redevelopment of Huber Park.
Staff has already done a substantial amount of work on the types of pipe systems
available in reconstructing the sewer pipe. The realigning of this sewer pipe and sizing of
the sewer pipe will be based on meetings with Rahr Malting and Huber Park development
as well as other factors.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Move to approve Resolution No. 5588, a resolution ordering the preparation of a
feasibility report for the reconstruction of the River District sanitary sewer from
Adams Street to L -16.
2. Do not approve Resolution No. 5588.
3. Authorize the appropriate City officials to execute an extension agreement with
the City consultant to provide consultant services such as surveying for the
preparation of the feasibility report for the reconstruction of the River District
from Adams Street to L -16.
4. Table for additional information.
5. Authorize staff to obtain quotes for soil investigations borings.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends Alternative No. 1, No. 3 and No. 4, so that a feasibility report can be
prepared on the alternatives to reconstruct the River District sanitary sewer in order to
reduce the inflow /infiltration of this pipe system. Also with the feasibility report, survey
data and soil borings would be useful in providing a more accurate cost estimate for this
report.
ACTION REQUESTED:
1. Offer Resolution No. 5588, A Resolution Ordering the Preparation of a Report on
the Reconstruction of the River District Sanitary Sewer, from Adams Street to L-
16 and move its adoption.
2. Authorize the appropriate City officials to execute an extension agreement with
the City consultant in providing consultant services such as surveying for the
preparation of this feasibility report.
3. Authorize staff to obtain quotes for soil investigation borings.

26 September, 2001
Authorize Advertising for Recreation Supervisor Position
C G N S. EE NN T
City Council is asked to authorize advertising for the Recreation Supervisor position,
which is responsible for coordinating the Aquatic program.
BACKGROUND
At your September 4 th City Council meeting, you authorized the termination of John
Lehner as Recreation Supervisor, effective October 23, 2001.
At this time, we are seeking authorization to advertise for this position. Although Mr.
Lehner's termination won't be official until October 23r the advertising and recruitment
process will take several weeks, and will not conclude until early November. By
advertising now, we can begin the hiring process and hopefully have someone on staff
yet this fall so they can familiarize themselves with the current program. In the interim,
we will be covering the responsibilities with assistance from part-time and full -time staff.
If Mr. Lehner appeals his termination, resulting in a delay in the official termination date
(which he has the opportunity under the Veteran's Preference Law), we would not
proceed with screening and interviews until such time as it is appropriate to do so.
REQUESTED ACTION
If the Council concurs, it should, by motion, authorize advertising for the Recreation
Supervisor position.

TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Mark McNeill, City Administrator
SUBJECT: Personnel Handbook Changes
DATE: September 28, 2001
The attached memorandum from the Payroll Benefit Coordinator asks that some changes
be made in the personnel handbook.
As shown, some of the changes are housekeeping. However, there are also proposed
additions to the benefits package for non - contract personnel:
%2 Christmas Eve Day — The non - contract employees currently have 11 days of holiday.
The Public Works bargaining unit negotiated this additional %2 day into their current
contract (total 11.5 holidays), and this Christmas will be the first time that the %2 day is
observed for them. The Police Sergeants also have this 11.5 holidays; however, the
current Police Officers contract which expires at the end of this year still has 11 holidays.
For your information, the according to Labor Relations, Inc., the largest numbers of
Group 5 cities (between 10,000 and 25,000 population) have either 11 or 12 annual
holidays for non - police and non - public works personnel.
Separation Pay — The current contract with all three bargaining units have a buy back of
45% of unused sick leave, assuming the employee leaves in good standing, and has been
working at least 5 years as the severance pay. The non - contract employees have a 33%
buy back. I recommend changing the non - contract bury back to 45 %.
In order to equalize this benefit, the 45% rate of separation pay should be for employees
who have worked here five years or more (the union contracts now have this). According
to the current personnel manual, there is no minim amount of time for a non - contract
employee to receive this separation pay —a minim of 5 years should be set. In fairness
to existing employees who have not been here for five years, I recommend keeping the
separation pay at 33 %, until such time as they have worked for five years; at that time,
they would also be eligible for the 45% rate. All new employees hired after the adoption
of this policy by Council would have to wait five years.
Regarding budget impact, it will increase the payout by the City to an eligible employee.
For an employee making $40,000 per year, the added payout for an employee who has
"maxed -out" at 960 hours would be entitled to an additional $2,215 (not including any
tax impact). Note that under the current policy, an employee would need to work for 10
years, and use no sick leave at all during that time, in order to accumulate 960 hours.
I concur with the recommendations contained in the attached memo.

Mayor & Council Members
FROM: Marilyn Remer, Payroll/Benefits Coordinator
SUBJECT: Personnel Handbook Revisions
DATE: September 21, 2001
19 N I ROYDIX41 [II►Q
The Council is asked to consider several revisions to the City's Personnel Handbook.
Background:
Several revisions are necessary to reflect actual practices and are routinely
"housekeeping" in nature. Specifically, 1.) Mandatory participation in the City's deferred
compensation program is no longer required for temporary pool employees and seasonal
public works employees; 2.) the city's contribution for single health insurance
reimbursement has been phased out effective October 1, 2001. Employees who have
other health insurance coverage are allowed to waive participation in the City's plans,
subject to the completion of the Group Waiver of Coverage Form; and 3.) The city
provides dental insurance coverage for eligible employees.
In addition, to maintain equitable and non - discriminatory benefits; the following changes
are recommended 1.) one -half day (four hours) holiday leave for Christmas Eve day is
added to the Holiday Celebrated schedule; and 2.) unused sick leave shall be
compensated at forty -five (45) percent upon employee termination in good standing, for
current employees, requiring employees hired after January 1, 2002 to complete five full
years of employment to be eligible for severance, consistent with contract employees.
This replaces thirty -three (33) percent with no minim employment requirement.

FROM: Bruce Loney, Public Works Director CONSENT
SUBJECT: Approve Status Change for Receptionist
DATE: October 2, 2001
INTRODUCTION:
The City Council is being asked to approve the job status of Lori Hensen to assist the
Public Works Department.
BACKGROUND:
Ms. Hensen currently works for the City of Shakopee on a part-time basis for six hours a
day for the City Clerk. Four hours a day is utilized as a receptionist, two hours a day is
utilized for City Clerk or other clerical duties and her job is classified as part-time with
pro -rated benefits. Ms. Hensen had recently worked two hours a day for the Community
Center in the early morning hours prior to coming to work for the City Clerk. She has
decided not to open the Community Center building in the morning anymore and thus
does have two hours available a day to work in the Public Works Department.
Staff had included a clerical position in the 2002 Budget for 20 hours a week. In this
situation it is proposed to add Ms. Hensen to the Public Works Department for two hours
a day and move her from a part -time status to a full -time position. Currently Ms. Hensen
does receive benefits for her position on a pro -rated basis. Staff is proposing to change
her status from part-time prorated benefits to a full time position, with eligibility for full
time benefits by assisting the Public Works Department with ten hours per week. Staff
believes this is a good opportunity for the Public Works Department to meet the needs for
clerical assistance for that department. Staff estimates that the addition of this position
will be $1,600.00 for 2001. Ample funds exist in the Public Work's budget to
accommodate this addition.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Authorize Lori Hensen to work for the Public Works Department for ten hours a
week and to change her status from part-time receptionist position to a full -time
receptionist effective October 8, 2001.
2. Do not authorize the hiring of Lori Hensen for the Public Works Department.
3. Table for additional information.
Authorize Lori Hensen to work for the Public Works Department at ten hours per week
and to change her job status from part-time to full -time. Ms. Hensen can assist the Public
Works Department in record keeping, answering the phone, data entry and other office
tasks.
ACTION REQUESTED:
Approve a motion authorizing Lori Hensen to work for the Public Works Department for
ten hours a week and change her job status from part-time with pro -rated benefits to full -
time with full -time benefits.

The increase in the General Fund - fund balance from 2000, after the transfer
to the Building Fund of $1,600,000, was $377,000. This is sufficient to cover
the above items (draw down of fund balance) in the amount of $12,400.
There was $25,000 in the 2000 budget for the Park Reserve Fund that was to be
used for O'Dowd Lake Park. Only about $7,000 was used. It is requested that
the remainder be reallocated to the project in the 2001 budget. A resolution
is not needed to amend this budget.
In the budget process, an item was moved from the General Fund budget request
to the Equipment Fund request. The first part was done but the second part
"fell through the crack" and was not included in the Equipment Fund budget.

30, due to lack of performance. Due to the language in the cleaning contract, the City
would need to continue paying Masterpiece Commercial Cleaning Service; even though,
most services were not being provided.
City staff will be able to cover the general cleaning duties until a new contractor is hired
in October.
City staff has met with prospective cleaning companies and will be receiving RFPs by
October 11 and presenting a recommendation on October 16 to City Council.
Action Required
City Council is asked to affirm the termination of Masterpiece Commercial Cleaning

Masterpiece Commercial Cleaning Service
Attn: George M. Ficzeri
11342 Deer Ridge Lane
Minnetonka, MN 55343
Dear Mr. Ficzeri:
As of Sunday September 30, 2001, the City of Shakopee is terminating the cleaning
contract with Masterpiece Commercial Cleaning Service pursuant to section seven (7) of
the City's cleaning contract. This is due to the failure to fulfill numerous obligations of
the cleaning contract in a timely and proper manner. Masterpiece Cleaning Service has
been notified in writing, verbally and over the phone on several different occasions over
the past six (6) months by city administration staff of such deficiencies in the cleaning
service and breach of contract issues. It has become apparent that no cleaning services
have been rendered for City Hall, Police Department, Public Works and possibly other

CITY OF SHAKOPEE
Memorandum
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Mark McNeill, City Administrator
SUBJECT: Street Closure — Dakota Street North of First Avenue
DATE: October 2, 2001
The Council is asked to authorize the closing of Dakota Street north of First Avenue on
Saturday, October 6 beginning mid - afternoon. In addition, a request is also made to
mount temporary banner signs in the right of way.
On Monday, October 1 I received a call from John Welker. Mr. Welker is the organizer
of what is being called the "Poker Run for Fun", which will be held this Saturday,
October 6 It is a motorcycle fundraiser for the Lupus Foundation. Lupus is a disease
of the skin. A motorcycle route will start at the Saba's (911 East First Avenue), with
registration beginning at 1:00 PM. Following a 120 -mile ride, participants will return to
Saba's. There will be live entertainment at Saba's later that evening, along with fund
raising auctions and other activities.
Mr. Welker indicates that there is growing interest in this fundraiser. He has received
permission from Dave Yarusso to utilize the former Red Owl parking lot across First
Avenue for parking. In addition, he requests permission to utilize Dakota Street north of
First Avenue for additional motorcycle parking if needed. Barricades would be dropped
off, and the organizer would need to determine if the actual closure was needed (some of
the turnout will be dependent upon weather that day).
The City Council needs to authorize this street closure.
I did contact the owner of the KFC restaurant to the west of Saba's, whose second access
into the KFC parking lot access is Dakota Avenue. The owner indicates that he is okay
with the plan to close Dakota Street, as long as the organizers provide supervision so that
the parking of motorcycles does not overflow into the KFC lot, and that the majority of
activities take place after 8:00 PM. Mr. Welker indicates that he will have four security
people to assist in keeping order with the parking lot; the entertainment will not begin
until after 8:00 PM.
In addition to the parking issue, Mr. Welker has requested that the Council approve
temporary banner signs that would be tied between the Saba's pedestal sign and the street
light pole. This would cause it to be in the public right of way. Staff indicated to Mr.
Welker right of way signs have not been approved in the past; however, he is concerned
that westbound motorcycles will not be able to see the Saba's identification sign (due to
foliage) until it maybe too late to stop safely. Therefore, signage into the right of way is
necessary for safety reasons, he indicates.
Normally, any temporary banner signs should have a variance from the sign ordinance
processed. However, due to time constraints, that is not possible. While staff does not
generally have a problem with the banner signs, it is concerned about the precedent being
set for approving signs in the public right of way. There are many other worthwhile
projects that have been denied in the past, and authorizing this would set a precedent. We
recommend against that.
I recommend the Council authorize closure of Dakota Street (if necessary) from First
Avenue north for parking purposes beginning mid - afternoon, October 6 until 1:00 AM
Sunday, October 7 with the condition that sufficient supervision is provided to keep
parking limited to on- street, and authorized parking lots.
In addition, I recommend that the temporary banner signs be approved, but that the
placement is limited to private property (behind the sidewalk).
If the Council approve the signage, the applicant should also be required to complete a
sign permit application, and pay the $25 fee.
1
If the Council concurs, it should, by motion, authorize the closing of Dakota Street north
of First Avenue beginning mid - afternoon Saturday, October 6 th until 1 AM the following
day, with the condition that sufficient supervision is provided to keep parking limited to
on street, and authorized parking lots.
In addition, the Council should also, by motion, authorize temporary banner signs to be
placed on private property, after the receipt of proper sign application is received.

PURPOSE FOR THE STUDIES:
Scott County has begun two corridor studies to develop a preliminary design for CSAH 16 from
CSAH 83 to TH 13. The two studies will be conducted concurrently: CSAH 16 from CSAH 83 to
CSAH 18, and CSAH 16 from CSAH 18 to TH 13. The studies will ultimately identify the future
design of CSAH 16, and the future right -of -way needs for the roadway.
Scott County is seeking the public's input in identifying issues along this segment of CSAH 16.
All interested parties will have the opportunity to ask questions, express concerns, and raise
issues along the study segments. Information regarding the existing corridor will be available
for viewing. It is anticipated that a subsequent open house will be held in December to receive
the public's input on the draft recommendations of the study.
